    Happens. Probably had to move wheel back in wheel well towards the cab to get proper numbers. Getting UCA'S might help.

    I'd like to hope that someone putting a 6" lift on their truck would replace the OEM UCAs at the same time.

    Thanks for responding to my question. My problem was self inflicted. My rough country lift come with skid plate. I took them off because I thought it looked better. Not realizing that the skid plates or what braces the front and rear crossmember. When I took it in for alignment they set the caster to fare back. I have since taken it to 4 Wheel Parts and had them realign it and put the skid plates back on. Didn't know it at the time, got some bad advise on using the rough country. Would have gladly spent the extra money for a better lift if i had know what i know now
