    Satoshi'd grill. blacked out badges. aftermarket sound system. De-chromed and color matched. OME 885s + Dakars with 3rd leaf removed. LR UCAs. Scs stealth 6 with 285 duratracs. BAMF sliders
    Doesn't sound right. You can adjust the camber with the UCA, the top nut slides in and out, go check where the nut is set on you UCAs. Which way are the tires leaning?
