    It would be all the way outboard, pushing the LCA ball joint forward

    Yes this is what I meant. The bolt will be all the way out but the cam lone is on the inside of the bolt

    Uhhh....either I'm crazy or not seeing something right, but I have no idea how you have so much caster, your caster cam bolts are opposite of what they should be

    I have no idea. :) . If I look at their sheet, honestly the only thing I see that they changed from what it already was was the toe and steer ahead. There was no change in camber or caster now that I look at it. Camber was already in "factory spec." so they may not have messed with the LCA at all.

    There's no way you should have that much caster with the cams like that....with the cams like that you should have like 1-2* max

    That's weird. Like anthony250f said, just by looking at your cams you should have a lot less caster than your print out shows. On the plus side though, there's still room on the rear cam bolts to push the wheel more forward to help with the rubbing issues. But who knows what effect it will have on camber/caster with the weirdness going on with your cams.

    Take it somewhere else. Toyota can be dicks. As pointed out by others I have lifetime alignment with King 2.5 and TC UCA. They adjusted it originally to 1.8 from some random settings after install. Recently I had them push it out to 3 and 3.4 to compensate for the crown in the road. Toyota can do it but with the UCA they prob have no idea how to do it. Not surprisingly many do not know how to adjust.

    I have the same wheel setup on mine and CMC was done and on the trails I had to cut a bunch on the fender and removed the mud flaps. Regular driving was okay except for dips and driveways at 1.8 castor. After trimming and move to 3/3.4 I have not see any rubbing. I have some RokBlokz XL on order which mount on the outside in the front so I will see how that goes about putting them back on. Tired of rocks hitting everything.

    Call the local private garage that does aftermarket 4x4 installs and ask where they shop out their alignments to. They will be familiar with aftermarket UCAs
