    My passenger front wheel is supposedly set back a scosh compared to driver side, per alignment shop. Can you alignment pros give me your feedback on this. They told me to bring it back in after 1 thousand miles after the lift settles to get rechecked. Here is the print out

    Meh, looks like they went after toe and fixed it. Typical for the quick and easy alignment. I had Les Schwab do mine and they did just that, later took it to a reputable off road shop and they got both sides back to 2.5 deg caster on a 2.5" lift. If youre fine with the way it drives then just drive it, since the toe is fixed your good to go.

    A little more caster might help it steer a bit easier though.

    They didn’t actually do anything to the alignment aside from set your toe. They didn’t touch your camber or your caster, which is 99% of the actual alignment work.

    It’s called a “toe and go” alignment. There’s a lot of info on this site of proper settings for caster and camber after a lift, the “stock” alignment specs are just that, for stock trucks.

    That’s so lame, I figured! He told me leave it for 2 hours and I said I will wait, 35 minutes later he said it was done. This place got rave reviews, sounds like I got screwed out of $129!! I will be giving this shop a poor review, and for me going back in 1K miles to get rechecked , don’t se that happening.

    Sounds familiar. I knew as soon as I got the call 30 mins later that something was off. Rather than have them address it I just chose somewhere else.
