Alignment Tabs

I’m getting tired of having my alignment done after every offroad trip. Does anyone know if these work on 3rd gen Tacoma’s?

Front tabs yes, rear tabs no

Edit: what you can do to help with maintaining alignment specs is to ensure that the cams are torqued to spec. Not ugga dugga but their respective torque spec. Also mark your cam tabs to the center point so if they do shift you can always adjust them back to get you roughly back on the right track. Besides that, if you're truly wheeling to the point where your alignment is getting messed up, its a good idea to get your tabs reinforcement with TC/Marlin reinforcements

My main concern is that the alignment shop can never seem to get my camber right. I’ll check it out. Thanks man!

next time you get an alignment or if you still have your last alignment sheet then post it up. I'm seeing that you are running a lift and whether you run stock or aftermarket UCAs the alignment shops tend to focus too much on getting your caster right that the camber ends up screwy. They just follow the commands on the screen and that's how the computer ends up running the show and leaving you with less than ideal numbers.

with stock ucas they tend to sacrifice camber to add more caster
with aftermarket ucas they sacrifice camber to decrease caster added by the UCAs

I have JBA high caster UCAs. That makes sense. I just want my wheels straight up and down haha

It's just lifted truck problems, alignment shops are just adamant about getting stock numbers. Next time you go just ask for 3.5 caster on each side and if they listen then that will keep them from fighting the added caster and your camber numbers should look better

Thanks, I’ll give that a try.
