    I really hate making new threads, but I can't find the answer to this anywhere. I have an 08 4x4 with Icon ext coilovers and tubular uca's. It's pretty much maxed out on lift. I had it aligned by a good friend, and he went off the Instructions that came with the original Icon kit - normal camber/toe and as close to 3° caster as possible. I get it back yesterday and notice today from a distance it has visible positive caster on both sides - they look exactly even.

    Specs are as follows:
    Left
    Camber 0.2
    Caster 2.2
    Toe 0.03

    Right
    Camber 0.1
    Caster 2.4
    Toe 0.02

    Now the reason I got it aligned was my last set of tires wore with positive camber and began cupping only on the inside at only half life. I bought a new set of 35" ko2's and would like to protect my investment.

    My question - how in the hell am I seeing positive camber when their alignment machine says .1 - .2? It's bad enough that it reminds me of my old TTB ranger which had massive camber. Any help would be really appreciated. If there's nothing I can do I'll be biting the bullet on long travel sooner than I thought.
