    I waited about a month after I lifted the truck to get my alignment done, just to see if it needed to settle out. I don't put a lot of miles on it, maybe about 500 miles after the lift. I put on Bilstein 6112s with clips in the 10th groove on each side, plus a 1/4" spacer on the driver side for about 2" up front. Driver side is still just under 1/4" lower than front passenger side. I put Icon AAL 1.5" in the rears. Here are the before and after alignment numbers. From all the research, I was expecting the camber would need to be a little higher than what they set it to. Seems to ride fine, but do these numbers look right? Also, does it make a difference if their stock alignment settings are for 265/70R16 vs 275/70R17 tires? Thanks.

    I agree that the before camber does seem odd that it wasn't higher (post lift). But the current numbers look well within OEM specs from what I've read(I'm not an expert) . Some folks may chime in say they prefer a camber of zero which is the bottom end of factory specs. I don't think tire size will make a difference in this case.

    I'm curious to see what others say.

    It ain't going to get much better than that.
