The "steer ahead" numbers changed. Is this a reflection on the toe adjustment alone?
What about the secondary angles that I mentioned earlier? Do they not apply. I know that the turning toe could do a lot of damage.
It is "eye opening" that with this particular arrangement, toe is the only adjustment. I have always planed on CA's for my lift anyway. I'll have to go back and read the write-up again. But I thought that it was mentioned that the "tape measure adjustment" was recommended as a temporary fix untill a profesional alignement could be performed. I still think that the OP did the right thing by having an alignement performed.

Wow calm down before you blow an O ring. Please point to anything in my post that is wrong... And I will correct it. First mention of stock components was your response, which I covered with the statement " simple adjustments".... How I feel about cam bolts, and under $300 in ball joints (sorry if you are paying retail) is completely irrelevant, ( I have neither) my point was simply, that cant is too strong a word. I also fail to see where I had any question of the OP's end results....
