Default stats...

so I put in a TF 2.5'' lift kit with shocks

no TB or anything like that...

I was thinking about getting an alignement done and wnated to know what everyone would sugest for settings for castor and toe and things like that... I mean... my truck doesnt drive bad at all (at least that I notice) its pretty much like stock I guess... but its a bit rougher with the nitto mud graps with the E rated ply or whatever...

I was wondering if I should have everything checked and spec'ed so that I have nothing to worry about...

is it worth it ?

The only thing the shop can do is set your toe in/out and recenter your steering wheel. Unless you have adj control arms, then they can set your caster.

so umm... two random questions...

is it even worth it then ? my wheels is nearly 100% perfect... very very slightly to one side and it doesnt do anything to traction control...

and

2) will getting longer control arms in the rear push my rear tire back so it stops hitting the damn ruby rails ??? hahah.
