    Is the lift shop doing the alignment? If they are and they don't know, then they probably shouldn't be doing alignments.

    It’s a good shop, the Hunter systems haven’t been updated yet, that’s all. Curious if anyone has their print out available so I can confirm

    I had my 5000 Mile service done at a Toyota dealership and their Hunter machine didn’t have the new specs either

    I gave them those specs and they told me they don’t have the ability to manually enter those into the hunter machine it Has to be done by the hunter rep. I also have a friend who owns a Volkswagen dealership with the hunter machine also and he conveyed the same thing

    Shouldn't they still be able to get it in the range though? Or at least Toyota providing the specs.

    They told me they couldn’t guarantee without the specs entered in the machine and they didn’t want to mess with it and possibly cause more issues

    exactly...the machine provides the real time positioning...might not light up green but they can definitely get it within spec

    Well the Toyota dealership didn’t wanna do it without the specs in the machine I can’t force them to do it and my friend who owns the other dealership said they could definitely get it within specs but they would be more comfortable once the specs are in the machine

    I usually get all my alignments done at my friends dealership he has one of the best Alignment guys around but I just happen to be at the Toyota dealership for my 5000 mile service and figured I’d give it a shot since they are Toyota sounds like it’s a hunter thing seeing how the specs are out

    That's pretty close to 2022 specs. Could tweak it a little to get perfect toe, but still within tolerance. Don't know if you can even get caster within spec especially with your 3 inch front lift and stock UCA.

    Yeah it’s an intermediate lift. I had new UCA, kings, deavers on my Tacoma and man could I fly through the desert. It would just float yet feel solid. Gonna be awhile before this tundra will be able to do that!

    It would be interesting to know what specs the dealership I got mine done at (after they installed the Westcott’s) used.

    Maybe some dealers are updated and others aren’t :notsure:

    So I had my truck into 4WP for alignment this past weekend after installing the Westcott 3/1, and I've attached my results. From what I understand, they should be getting much more caster than they did...

    I just got off the phone with the store manager and he told me to stop back by and he would personally take a look, but that I shouldn't except more, if any, without UCA replacement or sacrificing the camber they got... Obviously new UCAs would help, but I don't get why some are getting 2.5+ with the same lift, and they can't...
