    What’s up TW, I’ve been looking for long travel alignment specs but I mostly find 1st gen Tacoma specs. What’s everyone running for caster and toe? I have a Baja kits +2 on my 2008 fj and it’s hard to keep it to track straight. If I start going left and pull right just a bit it will want to keep going right. Same if it starts to track right and I correct it a bit by going left it will want to keep going left. I couldn’t find an alignment thread in here I figured I’d start one. Thanks!

    Mine is…listed as left right.

    Caster: 5.8 6.4
    Camber: -1.4 -1.4
    Toe: 0.06 0.09

    I need to adjust my uppers arms a bit (they are dirt king and not easily adjusted) so I can get the camber closer to 0.

    You might need more caster. I think this guide from TC applies to most of the traditional kits. Even w a stock length TC kit on my 4Runner, it worked better up around 5 degrees of caster.
    Now I have a DK +3.5, and it's set w 0 degrees camber and toe, but only a little over 4 degrees of caster and its still a little twitchy.
