    looks like they helped with getting some caster back and corrected the toe. do you have aftermarket UCAs? If you do, you can ask them to give you more caster. Other than that, it looks ok

    Won't more caster move the wheel to the rear of the wheelwell? If I was rubbing on my cabmount at slick rock, wouldn't I want to keep the caster as is?

    I'm not an expert on this at all so please forgive if that sounds dumb

    caster will move the wheel more forward in the wheel well.camber thats good is about 2.5 to 3 degrees. when you go too high you'll have some gnarly bump steer lol but at that setting your wheels won't rub on the cab side anymore and bump steer isn't too bad.
