    with SPC UCA's you can adjust the LCA'a to full caster which will put the tire forward in the wheel well then use the caster adjustment on the UCA'a to dial caster in. Use the 32mm nut to adjust camber. Check out this video. There are a few other videos on SPC UCA's also. I just installed my new suspension which included SPC's and did a "poor mans" alignment using the information in the videos on Youtube. My tires and wheels will be installed later this week at which point I will take my rig to a shop that has aligned lifted trucks. They will center the wheels so they don't rub.

    Finally got the rig aligned. Shout out to Comptom Automotive in Dallas. Double the price of everyone else, but worth every penny because not one penny was wasted.

    Good to hear man!

    Did they lube your LCA cam bolts for future prevention?

    If not I strongly recommend you pony up to have that done asap. Unless you want to pay for more labor, $170ish in bolts from Toyota, and possibly new LCA's also in the future when they do weld together.

    This is a known issue, ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure or however the saying goes lol.

    Thanks for posting. Helped me with my research.The exact setup up i was looking for to do for my truck, once i saw those icons my decision was made, but im going bronze. But I wasnt sure what to do with suspension in terms of height with 6112/5160 setup. Currently have a 3/1 LRO level but im gonna upgrade and bring truck down alittle bit. Nice looking truck.

    Good to hear. Will have to keep them in mind if I ever have alignment problems. Did they ever say what was causing the alignment issue?

    believe it or not, just the techs having no idea how to do an alignment with adjusting g the UCA. It’s like they were seeing in color for the first time and just couldn’t process it.
