    You are 100% wrong. Get it to a good shop and let the pros handle it. Or cut your Inners and get it aligned professionally only to find out the hard way you dont have enough thread engagement. But still. Ditch the tabs. Run a cam and torque properly. And yes, your camber IS off that bad when I can see it in the pictures. I would love to know how you know caster and camber is close when it hasnt been on a rack.

    Moving both cams outboard creates negative camber. Moving the rear only would have a greater impact on increasing castor

    My rear cams are out further than the front already.

    You and @Dayman Karate should trade since he has 18x600 that are too high.

    I may be down to trade you springs. I’ll know more in a day or so. Still have to fab my skids back on since @81Trekker cut all my shit off and welded on their junk :rofl:

    I may step down a rate, but I want to ride on these for a bit to see. Ride height is much better, I did trim an extra inch or so off the fenders so I forgot about the optical illusion. Not to mention it was 11pm when I did all this haha I need to get some measurements and see what’s actually going on with all this.

    The 700s are almost new and the 600s need some touch up from where the tie rod was contacting it before alignment.

    main reason I want more lift up front is because I want a bigger shackle for the JD spring under which will lift the truck I’m pretty sure. So I’d like to keep the same ratio of lift front to back as I have now.

    18” 600lb eibach. They ride OK. I have yet to fully adjust preload and put the weight back in it hence why I said possibly.
    I will say she jumps like a champ just sits a little higher than expected upfront.

    I've been happy with my 600 lb springs with the steel Hybrid bumper, etc. I have a 16" though with very little preload. I'm not sure you can fit an 18" on the Fox C/O without increasing preload due to the length constraints of the shocks. Keep us posted when you add some weight though!

    Am I the only crazy bastard that's ordering several sets of springs and is gonna play musical springs until I find a rate to length to preload amount I like........ After I figure that out I'll be really paying close attention to how the shock reacts and will valve from there

    Accutune has a coil swap program where you can basically do this but only pay for one set of coils.

    I put the cam bolts all the way in for the most positive camber just to try something else. Still no room to adjust the toe in and here’s pictures of the toe out. Not sure what else to do. I’m talking ballpark toe in isn’t even possible. Tie rods are same length as spec. Height might be a tad tall but if anything lowering it will make toe out worse…

    Can someone verify the length of the tie rod extension for the +2.25 kit since I think I’m going insane? Am I crazy to think it should be less than 2.25”? o_O

    Probably should have just paid a shop to install it at this point.
