    Recently had my coach builder kit installed (5100s, shims, +3 shackles and bora 1.25 wheel spacers). The shop that I went to is one that I have used for years. When they gave me the alignment sheet the said “it’s not perfect but you won’t be able to tell”. I asked why and his response was “there was no more adjustment”. Has anyone else experienced this with this kit? Or am I getting a load of crap? I get a little right drift, and it looks like my toe is off. Attached is the final run from the alignment

    5100s at what setting? How many shims and where? You may need UCAs. I needed them and I was running 5100s on the top setting and two shims on the drivers side and one on the passenger's side for a 3" lift.

    As already asked, how many shims for a total lift of??

    Camber and toe settings suck. With that camber your going to be wearing tires unevenly. With the toe you'll probably be cupping the tires as well.

    Ideally camber 0, caster 3 to 4 and toe is a little up for debate but between .14 to .24 cross.
