    IMG_20211219_114837563_HDR.jpg Hi everyone, I have my truck lifted with leveling kit couple years ago and it didnt really show that tires were caved in. The outer side is balding more than the inside. Im looking for options to get it straighten and the only thing that comes up to my mind is to get an aftermarket lower control arms. Just not sure if that would fix the issue. If you guys have any advice, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Have you taken it for an alignment yet? Upper control arms would be what you want for improved alignment angles but I see you have a leveling kit, probably 2" and usually you don't need UCA's until 2.5" or higher. I would start by taking it in and having an alignment done.

    I have not, but when I got it installed they did an alignment which was not aligned after all. I will do that
