    Hey Everybody. I have a 2008 SR5 4x4, 5.7. I have the Bilstein (forgot the part number) set on the highest setting. I also have pro comp upper control arms with the uniballs. The steering feels like the truck is on ice, even when going straight. Kind of like the wheels are kind of gliding. I did wheel bearings (both sides). Had it aligned twice. Still kind of a skating feeling. If that makes sense. Any ideas?

    How is the power steering fluid level?? I am asking since you didn't mention it.... There is an issue with going full lock on the steering, worth a shot checking the fluid level

    Post your alignment specs. Sounds like the alignment is off, good chance the shops "did their best" and it's totally wrong. You should've gotten a sheet back showing the numbers.
