How much positive camber can I get away with?

    I recently installed ~2.5” eibach lift on my truck and figured I would get an alignment and see how it felt before deciding on whether new UCA would be necessary.
    Surprisingly, the truck drives pretty well after alignment and I really have no complaints on how it handles . It does have some positive camber and caster isn’t ideal either.
    My main concern is whether my specs are off enough where I will see uneven/premature tire wear. See my alignment sheet below and let me know what you think.

    That's fairly good for a lifted truck with stock arms.

    These trucks are supposed to have positive camber and you are just barely above center spec.

    Ideally I'd want higher caster at the sacrifice of even higher camber like 0.9 camber and 1.5-1.7 caster.

    I vote @Bishop84 to be the best member for factual information in 2022. Do I get a second?

    I'm just bored a lot more lately now that I'm single haha. Doesn't mean I'm right, but it sure sounds like it.

    Quit being modest. You post good content. I am just a dumb engineer who speaks in broad brush physics statements. You actually help people. Good on you and Merry Christmas!

    I second Bishop84's opinion. Numbers are pretty well what I align these trucks too at the shop. Only thing i'd change is maybe a little more caster but if it drives well to you I wouldn't worry about it

    IMO good numbers for Stock UCA’s. If you want better numbers aftermarket UCA’s are a must. I running 0 camber / 3.0 caster / 0 toe. Great looking Rig DCLB :cheers:
