    Hi Tacoma world!,
    I recently purchase my first Tacoma 1996 3.4L V6, the past owner added a lift kit in the front suspension, the problem is now I have to correct the camber to align correctly, but the options seem not too much besides the SPC upper control arms.
    How do you guys fix this issue? and what would you recommend?
    Thank you in advance for any help

    Any idea how much lift it has and how it was added? Easiest thing might just be to lower it a little.

    0xDEADBEEF It has spacer between the strut and the sitting chasis.

    10" from the top of the tire to the fender

    Remains to be seen I bought the tires and wheels the rest came along
    Just how bad are the camber numbers?

    Are the front tires being destroyed in a few hundred miles?

    Add a proper aftermarket UCA or return the truck to stock height.
