    Ok, so here's my issue. My rear is kicked -1.9 degrees on one side and almost 4.0 on the other. Talking with the alignment guy today he said I might try swapping sides on the leafs. When I installed the dakars I had to pull the drivers side forward to make it sit in the center pin. So looking for opinions on whether this might work. It would make sense I guess since it will reverse the "kick" right? Just seeing if anyone has done this since I don't want to pull them out for no reason .

    Did you make sure the axle was all the way forward or back on both sides before you torqued the U bolts? I had to loosen mine and use tie downs to pull mine forward. There is enough play on the pins for a few degrees of rear toe.

    Yea, I tried lossening and getting some movement, but my pins are tight. I had to pull on side about 1/2" forward just to get the pin to seat.
