    There's many different adjustment you can make for it. Might be what your thinking of but ya the only people that could relatively know how to do it was miller tire in Burnside but even they couldn't get it that great

    Set the balljoint at neutral and then all the adjustments can be done with the LCA cams just like normal

    Ya that's what I told them last time and I was looked at like I had no clue. Nova Scotia is frustrating sometimes

    Is the shop mounting the UCAs as well or are they already on the truck ?

    Already on the truck but I need to replace the ball joints because they are both shot. The shop installing them doesn't have an alignment shop. So I have to find something

    So , if the shop replacing the balljoints installs them in the neutral position ( SPC logo facing away from engine ) , then whoever does the alignment just uses the regular LCA cams to adjust as if there was factory UCAs on the truck

    I'm not sure how keen you are on driving any real distance, but Valley Tire in Kentville is awesome, they've worked on/installed lifted trucks and have everything to align it. They put on my OME kit w/ LR UCAs, my alignment was bang on when I got it back.

    Hey mitch, I google mapped that trail we were on. Apparently it leads to Miller Lake Rd and we were damn close to reaching the end. I cant see that rickety old bridge we turned around at because the satellite isn't so great but I can see that camp and some of the open areas as reference.

    I'll have to come out sometime there. Hopefully I'm laid off from the stupid shipyard this week and will have lots of time

    It has to be. If you zoom in you can see the clearing we turned around and the little beach. It was also the furthest corner of that lake

    I will cry with laughter if I get laid off. Keep your seniority for 3 years so I'll be back. After a nice summer off of course

    That's true! Next time we will have to go all the way!
    That's lucky! Haha we don't have a union at saputo. But I get paid more because I work in two different trades. Sucks though because it's twice the work and like 2 dollars more an hour
