alignment

I just installed new upper control arms and am about to take it to an alignment shop. is it standard practice to torque the nuts at ride height? that's of course what I did, but do the alignment shops know to do that?

Front axle alignment tool. Never used. Pics below are the first time I removed the parts out of their original packaging. Don't own any more land cruisers so it's time to pass it along. Looking online, prices are all over the place for this tool - $539 - $285. $300 shipped anywhere in the lower...

So ya, have the truck now..97lx450..and as reported it def. does wander at 60-65..or more. I'm on a Dobinsons 2.5" life with 35" wildpeak mts. No radius arm drop brackets..Knuckles rebuilt less than 2k miles ago..apparently bearimg replaced too. please drop some ideas of what it could be...

Ok, my wife drives a 2016 570 with the 21 inch tires. It seems the front tires, on the very outside edge of the tire, get chewed up within30k miles, the remainder of the front tires are easily at 50%. Every year I have the Lexus dealer put the vehicle on the alignment machine to check...

Embarrassed to ask but just installed a 2.5” list and larger 33” tires on my 1970 FJ40. Other than slight cruiser lean it turned out great. Was planning on getting an alignment based on some recommendations but when I drive the truck it tracks perfectly straight and doesn’t seem to be out of...

If I adjust the torsion bar of my AHC Lancruiser 100, does it affect wheel alignment?

Just had shocks replaced front and back. Alignment necessary following this? Heard varying opinions

I’m going to take advantage of the 25% off sale at Ironman and had some questions. Initially I only wanted to go as high as a 1.5 with a Dobinson kit, however the 2” Ironman is on sale, free delivery and diff drop included for $1100. So the question is, with a 2” lift, will I run into...

getting ready to install my new 2 inch lift on a 2020 tacoma. looking for a place to do alignment that knows what they are doin. poss dealer?

I noticed recently that my passenger side rear wheel appears to sit further inside the wheel well than my driver side rear wheel and my two front wheels by about 1/4- 1/2” relative to the fenders and mud flaps. I am running OEM 20” wheels (2014 LX 570) all around (and do 5 wheel rotation - my...

They aligned when the car had very little gas in the tank.. Which I think is not great for a tank that sit on one side. They are supposed to warranty the work 12 month /12,000 Is this guaranteed by Lexus? Can I have another dealership redo the alignment? Getting someone to call me back about...

I'm looking for some alignment advice. Sorry to start another alignment thread, but I've read through as many as I can with search. I have a 2" Dobinsons MRA lift with Dobinsons UCA. I'm getting some tire wear on the outer edges, squeaking on the pavement when turning sharp at low speeds, and...

I'm rebuilding my knuckle housing after a leaking seal and in doing so, the novice that I am, didn't take note of the shim order. As I read through the manual I now understand the importance of this and I'm wondering, without having to spend a fortune on getting hold of an SST from somewhere...

Hey all. Restoring a `66 FJ40, keeping this rig as was, minus necessary upgrades. Just noticed the water pump alignment is off after putting on new belt. The alt. and crank are aligned, albeit the alt. bracket is either backwards or something, as there's a nut spacer going to the water pump. It...

First off, here are the suspension and tire specs: SPC Upper control arms. BP51 with 2 inch lift, tires 285/70R18 Symptoms: Recently steering wheel points slightly right but truck seems to track straight. Truck has roughly 20k miles as do the ridge grapplers. It’s primarily used for...

My right cam does not line up perfectly. It is very close but not right on. Will this be ok?OK? Note the pictures.

So.. my front doors have always been hanging a bit low. I can see that the pins are worn, and I've adjusted them to the max, but I'm feeling like even a new set of pins will not close the void at the top. Its as though the door and the hole are a different shape. My HJ45 was converted from new...

Happy Sunday!!! Where is everyone taking their 80 series to get the alignment checked? I am having a wear issue on my front tires and want to make sure the toe is adjusted correctly and see how far caster and camber is out. I am wearing the outside of the front tires. Thanks in advance.

hey everyone. couldnt quite find the answer i was looking for after searching forums but i just installed my lift with spc arms and next is 35s. i told my alignment guy i was going for 35s in the future so he gave me a moderate alignment, in terms of caster, which is set at 2.8 for now as im...

replaced the tie rods, linkages and dampener, and counted threads to get a rough alignment. Going to 1. Add caster wedge (Just waiting the rest of my ubolts from CruiserTeq, they only shipped me 2 instead of 8, one front, one rear.) 2. Replace spring bushings, 3. Rebuild Knuckle. (Probably a...
