    Ranch Hand Summit front and rear bumpers. Diamondback SE tonneau cover. Rigid DOT fogs. LED headlight/fog replacement bulbs. Matt Gecko hood, and bed LED's. Foot well led's, and interior LED buld replacement. (warm) Broke the front shock of the 3" spacer lift, so replaced with 6112/5160 and 1' block rear. KO 2's. Speaker replacement, added amp and (2) 10's under seat. Weathertech floor mats. Salex organizers. Ziebart undercoating. RCI front, transmission/diff, and gas tank skids received, waiting for spring install. Compustar remote starter. front/rear dash cam.
    i was hoping that you all could help decipher my latest alignment printout. Tech was clueless as usual. Suggested I replace lca’s since he could not get bolts to budge. I have a lifetime alignment at Midas, but I guess I am going to have to find another shop. Truck feels to be floating slightly in the front. Appreciate the help!B3BC886C-C138-4168-9995-06E54AECC3B9.jpg

    All he did was set the toe but without caster and camber within spec he's just kicking the can down the road. I'd have another shop give it a try.

    There are some really smart alignment guys on here I'm sure they'll chime in. There is an alignment sticky check it out. From what I can tell you need to go to another shop. They may have been trying to turn the wrong side of the cam bolt. I've had the best experience so far with shops that install lifts also. Midas may or may not have a guy knowledgeable enough to get ya where the gurus say your numbers outta be. You'll probably wanna post the height of your truck etc. on here for this too.

    Here are my numbers from about a week ago after installing new control arm bushings. I have a 4.5 inch spacer/drop down in front. Just outta curiosity what kind of lift did you break?

    Yikes. They didn’t do an alignment lol.

    Camber should be 0-0.2, and equal L to R

    Caster should be - 2.5-3. Some put a few more tenths on the right, but that’s depending on how roads are crowned or sloped in your area.

    Total toe - less than or equal to 0.15

    Castor doesn't usually wear tires. So you can be a little patient. But yeah I'd find a better shop. Castor on struts means the body is tweaked a little. I'm just getting back into old school stuff with the Tundra. This coil over thing is bizzare
