    Hey y’all,
    So I’m kind of at a loss. About 5k miles ago I installed a toytec lift with spc ucas. Yesterday I took my truck to get realigned because they truck will damn near pull you into the ditch if you let go of the wheel. After telling them the problem they aligned all four wheels and the problem is still there. They even crossed the two front tires to see if it was a tire problem to no avail. Has anyone had this issue or have any idea what it could be?
    Thanks,
    Caleb

    If the only change was the lift then check that everything was installed correctly. If it is, then it has to be the alignment. Maybe try a different shop. Or take someone else’s printout and ask for those specs. Lifted trucks are a little different from stock specs. I only lifted 2.5” and had to go back 3 times until it felt right and drove straight.

    Can you post pictures of the lift components? A arms, shocks mounting points and shock seats and cv boots? Also front sway bar if you have one.

    You didn't have a ball joint come loose and shift did you? Are they both I stalled the same way? Pics of the front setup will help us look for anything odd.

    Sorry for the late reply from me, life’s been hectic lately. I don’t have any pictures of the suspension yet but plan on take the wheels off in the next couple days. I’ve also noticed that when I drive on a bumpy road that the steering is very clunky sounding. I have a video but idk if you’ll be able to hear it. Also the wheel turns to the right easier than the left. As far as having a ball joint come loose and shift, I have no idea. I had a shop install my lift.

    Camber is suppose to be at 0.1 for both sides and as mush caster as possible 3+ but keep camber at 0.1 and 0.5 more caster more on passenger side than driver side. Their a whole ride up on it. Sometimes when its in the green dosent mean right.

    Excuse my ignorance but if the chamber is off it’ll cause the tire to look cocked either in or out correct, like the bottom looks further u see the truck than the top of that makes sense. Sorry for the dumb questions, I’ve just never had to deal with this stuff before.

    Yea im not really to sure. Im not an expert but I know some stuff. Bring the camber down close to 0.1. And caster looks good just bring the passenger up 0.5 more than the driver side. Toe looks good.

    Check your rear brakes, I'm stock, so I may not qualify under a lift system since I'm stock height, but I was getting a strong pull to the right-hand side, it turned out to be my rear brake caliper guide pins seizing. I've replaced the pins, cleaned the caliper and re-lubed and is no longer pulling.
