    Wheel alignment, camber, caster, toe in, toe out, cam tabs.... What does it all mean?

    We put together a 4 part article reviewing wheel alignment and how it all works. If you have a few minutes and curious to know how your Tacoma wheel alignment is done, take a look!​

    I just installed your Fox Stage 4 kit on my Tacoma. I'm Keeping the stock tires for a while longer. I read your article and you mention that 2.0 ~ 4.0 degrees of caster is best. I got it aligned today and these are the results. Is the 4.2" and 4.5" Caster too much?

    That is fine, it's more important that camber and caster are similar side to side. The caster is affected by the rear lift height, so you may be sitting a little lower than normal in the rear. Either way I wouldn't be concerned.
