    Yeah, Eddy's truck was up in the air with all the wheels off when I picked up my sliders from him. First time seeing it up close. There's a lot of truck there.

    LR UCAs ?

    I know they come with 2 degrees of caster built in. so, when you set that top plate adjustment thingy at the zero, or neutral, it will have 2 degrees caster. the sheet they came with is confusing AF, but it makes sense to some. so, if you adjusted that thing to +3 degrees, with the built in 2, you would be at 5. (kind of where its at)

    If not LR UCAs, disregard :anonymous:

    It's the JBA high caster UCAs!! Is more than 3* all that bad? I'd have liked the camber to be 0

    ah, OK, JBAs. I dont know them that well, (pondered them for a bit) but I think they have like 3 degrees built in or something, dont quote me on that. some techs always put a bit of camber in there. dont know if that amount will cause issue, or tire wear on the edges.

    I had 0.8* caster on my current tires and it wore the hell out of the outer edges. I think I'm gonna wait a little bit and then go see @Matic 's tire guy in Easley.

    camber.

    Ive tried to talk to the bozos at firestone when I go in, on why I want, 0 camber, 0 toe, and 2.5-3 caster. they always put in some camber, always. they say, it will corner better, blah blah. I say, I am a frikkin truck, not a sports car. they dont hear me. I use them for tweeks, will go to a good shop to get dialed in sometime soon.

    Yeah I definitely need to take it somewhere where they'll do what I ask them... I said the same thing and still got some camber. Oh well, it's definitely better. Next time I go in is gonna be when I get exactly what I ask for...
