    Hi all -

    I just picked up my truck from the alignment shop.

    specs:

    - Bilstein 6112/5160
    2 inch lift in the front 1.5 inch rear
    Icon AAL

    - 275/70/17 wheels/tires - they are the TRD sport alloys

    - stock UCAs

    They said it was the best they could do without adjustable UCAs.

    Is this acceptable or should I find a different shop? I know people have gotten good alignments with this exact set up, I’m just unsure what numbers I am looking for.

    thanks in advance

    UCA’s would bring your caster up which would be great

    You would rarely, as in almost never want a lower caster number on the passenger side, but they may have started out equal and drifted a bit during the alignment. The thing is most alarming is the rear toe. If those numbers are correct then it means you rear axle is in crooked by about a degree. If I were you, and I'm not, I'd be putting in new control arms which allow you to get to 3-4 degrees positive caster and definitely have that rear toe thing addressed when you get it realigned.

    If you lift a Tacoma……get UCAs
