    Looks like they just touched your right toe. How high of a lift did you go? They can do better

    Your alignment look like mine after my 3" lift. I got a LR upper control arm and was able to get 2*+ caster. Camber and toe should be 0.

    I see this all the time. Happened to me as well. The only thing the alignment place did was adjust the toe. I would take it to another place that knows what they're doing.

    This is from 2011 I assume it would be the same for a 2014


    Factory Range

    Camber: 0.2-1.3
    Caster: 1.0-2.5
    Toe: 0.0-0.11

    and someone correct me if I am wrong I can not correct caster without new upper CA's

    Thanks John

    It looks like a toe n go alignment.

    Does it feel squirrley and unstable?

    Not really a little looser then before the lift but only drove a short distance I will get a better feel tonight on my way from work.

    Thanks John

    Per 2006 FSM, for 4x4 with 17" wheels:

    Camber: -0.3 to 1.2 deg
    Caster: 1.3 to 2.8 deg
    Toe (total L + R): -0.02 to 0.20 deg

    Toe tolerance varies depending on model and tire size in the FSM.

    Since camber and toe are in tolerance, tire wearout shouldn't be an issue. However, the loss of caster means there will be less self-centering feel in the steering. No way to correct this without aftermarket upper arms. FYI, after 3" lift, my caster is at 5 deg thanks to the All-Pro upper control arms.
