Intro to fitting 35s (< 3" Lifts for those that wheel and love alignments)

Hey guys, thought I’d get yalls input before I started bashing my firewall in with a BFH.

Some background- Right now I’m rubbing in reverse while turning and when I’m leaving my neighborhood (slight flex while turning). Haven’t even gone offroad yet to really test it, but if I’m rubbing onroad can’t imagine what it’ll be like in the dirt.

I had the shop who installed all my gussets adjust my SPCs to push the wheel all the way forward, and it looks like they put it on setting G? Here’s a pic


And this is the alignment they set my truck to-


From my research in this forum, SPC position E is ideal with front cam tabs maxed outwards and rear tabs inwards. With my SPC position on G and none of my cam tabs maxed, it seems like my alignment could really be improved. am I tripping? I will probably need to hammer the firewall anyway, but I want to dial in the alignment before doing so.

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

 

Set LCAs all the way forward. Adjust upper ball joint until caster and camber is around 3-4 degrees, setting D for me. Fine adjust at the bottom but if you have to do too much in the bottom, add more caster at the upper until it’s where need it. Pull coilover and cycle and lock to lock. Hammer and cut as needed.

 

We need to see the lower cams. Upper adjustment isn’t that significant.

 

Let's start a thread for fitting 37s

 

How do the 12.5’s fit on the 7.0” wheel?

 

Tightly

 

Nature's beadlock

 

What pressures? What’s the front look like?

 

Hand mounted some 16 wide swampers on 7.5 wide wheels before, now any regular handmount is easy

 

28 psi the 4 runner wheels are 7.5 wide

 

7.5, right, forgot. How much more cutting than the 35x10.5’s?

 

Sorry, should have posted these initially as well. This is the driver side front

driver rear-

passenger front-

passenger rear-

only one that appears to be in the correct position is passenger rear. Current caster measures far less than what it should be, based on what I have seen on this thread thus far. I appreciate the help!

 

I don't wanna talk about it...

 

They aren’t using the Spc’s to align your truck. They are doing it all off the lower cams.

37’s are old news, where are the 40’s?

 

Wheres your 40s?

 

Same place my 37’s are. Nonexistent haha

 

Thats probably a good thing, 37s are a weird in between before 40s. You get in plenty of trouble with them, but you always want something bigger.

 

I’m thinking 37s while I build up for 40’s. Full hydro, new axle, cage etc. 37s are a min around here really.
