    Yep - looks like your camber is a little on the positive side

    Aftermarket UCA's FTW.

    That is strange - mine is a stock PreRunner and it doesn't look like that. :confused:

    New UCA's will do it.

    I know I'll get crap for this, but my AllPro's haven't given me any issues at all. They chirp like mad, but I've just been too lazy to grease the sweet monkey fuck out of them. Besides, with the MTs and stereo blasting it's hard to hear them anyways.

    Ok I found the total chaos ones, but I don't think I really need the top end due to me not going offload much. Any idea about the light racing

    A LOT of people run the Light Racing UCAs and have a pretty high satisfactory rate. I'll likely end up going with them just because of the price difference

    How long have you had the lift?

    If it's not wearing the tires or driving weird, then why spend the money on it?

    I would personally just get the alignment checked and run it if it's within specs.

    Mine look like that and I'm running my 5100's at .85. I've had it aligned at my friends shop and it was within spec. To be on the safe side I had it aligned at the dealership and they said it was within spec also. I'm keeping an eye on the tire wear for now.

    The wear is taking more out of the outside than the I side. Also the passengers side bends more inward than the drivers side. I'm getting an alignment Tuesday.

    Positive camber will wear the outside of the tire, and negative camber will wear the inside of the tire.

    If you plan on getting new UCA's soon, you might want to wait to get it aligned until then. I don't know that they are going to be able to do much without them after the lift.
