    Hey Everyone.

    I just got my lift installed today and it looks great. However I am rubbing on the passenger side heavy because of the toe and camber. Running 6112 with new coils in the front with camburg uca and 5100s with add a leaf in the rear. Tires and wheels - 285 ko2 on method nv rims 17s

    I will be replacing the lower ball joints Saturday and doing the breaks.

    I know I need an alignment but how long should I wait for it to to settle? I read different things and some places say a week or 2.

    However thinking of just paying for an Alignment tomorrow and then another one in two weeks.

    Alignment specs given are - Max caster. Should be 3 degrees or more. Camber 0 toe stock spec

    Get it aligned now.

    If those use your stock coils there is no settle to be expected, if they used new coils there shouldn't be much settling and it is totally dependent on suspension cycling rather than time. For coils they only compress, for lack of better word, from fatigue of cycling and that usually takes years. Your rear leaf is what it is, it won't change.

    Your front end will likely lower about half an inch when alignment is done, this is common.

    Looks great good choices.

    I probably would do the lbj then align it, but sooner than later for sure.
