    i try to get it as close to 0 as possible on camber and caster even on each side

    the factory specs work well for camber and toe. its just adding caster you need

    With about 2in of lift I usually shoot for close to 0 camber 0 toe and 3 degrees caster. The higher caster helps clear the 33s so if you have smaller tires you don't really need that much

    2.7 was the sweet spot for me (might of been 2.8) but i had 32s. so 3 is likely ideal for 33s

    i had Uniball uppers. no idea of the SPC will make it any different for you because of where the adjustment is made.

    I’m actually going to get the 02 sorted out then bring the 01 home. Reseal the 4runner engine and set it up with the 01 fuel injectors and shit so I can have a running driving truck with the Camry cam shafts... test bed. I’ll even throw the headers back on the ol girl.



    tundra “should” be mostly back together next week. I’ll barrow my buddies trailer to bring the 01 home after I get the 02 axle seals and catalytic on. And it’s much needed bath

    That's the best body style GM ever made... Though I'm partial to the dual headlight of GMC front end. Still, that's a kickass Chevrolet man:cool:

    So this was the original airplane tugger, huh? Long before Tundra, or any fuller size pickup, was even a thought in a Toyoda engineer's head

    Somehow I think Dan Blocker introduced the new body style for the nation to see in the fall of 1971 on Bonanza.
