    Good afternoon

    I am wanting to see if anyone has gone thru the same ordeal. Recently took my Tundra (2018 4wd) to get an alignment after replacing upper control arms and front struts, and the tech told me that one of the caster was bend. He suggested to look for a body shop or a shop that can bend it back to position and tag weld the outside ends to prevent future movement. To tell you all the true, I don't even know where to start. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I am in Houston Texas, but willing to drive within a reasonable distance to get this corrected. The top picture shows the nub with a bend on it and the bottom picture I believe is ok.

    Thank you

    Easy. Go to a different alignment shop. If you are talking about the tab? that is pointing down with the green mark? That is how it is supposed to be. If it is one of the side ones, which from the picture I can't tell if they are deformed, then that would be a different story. But looking at it they look like they're ok.
