    Do they need to do some more on caster or this ok. My truck isn't level so maybe it could be throwing off the specs

    A few things

    I always tell them to try to get my specs to this:
    Camber: 0
    Caster: 2.8 (2.5-4.0)
    Toe: 0

    It's a lot different then factory alignment specs but i guess for lifted trucks with bigger tires this is whats desired.

    EVERYTHING

    Just my 2 cents here.... Setting toe at 0 would make the steering a little sluggish... Usually you want to set it 1/8th in because at speed the tires have drag on them and the toe will be at 0... When it starts at 0 then at speed the tires will be a little toed out... Just an idea..... Thanks

    Anyone have photos of their truck with just a spindle lift and 31" all terrains? Looking to set my 5100's back to 0, and purchase spindles for a nicer ride. Want to make sure there wont be too much wheel gap with the smaller tires.

    There will be ALOT of wheel gap lol. I was on 32's and it looked funky to me. Even now, every so often I look at the truck and think the 33's still look a little small.

    I switched from 31s to 33s after I got my spindles and I still thought the 33s looked small. Now I'm runny 35s with glass and I feel like I need 37s

    I have a few mods
    Here's mine, I have 265/75r16 terra graps which they equate to about a 31.5" tire. My ICON coilovers are set to damn near nothing, so the spindles are giving me about 98% of my lift

    It honestly looks funny with the tiny tires lol, I want 35s to fill the space haha

    You using a line wrench? If they are stuck try soaking the fittings in liquid wrench or some type of lubricant.

    Thanks, I didn't even think of using a line wrench, I'll soak it also to see if it helps
