Hi all! I did some searches, and found the below threads... but just want to get everyone's thoughts on this.

I recently had a 2" lift installed on my '06 GX470... Dobinsons gas shocks/springs and SSO rear coil conversion, plus SPC UCA's, OEM LCA's, and OEM inner/outer tie-rods. The GX rides great now, but shame on me I didn't pay much attention to the alignment because I was so excited about refreshing the suspension. Anyhow, here are the post-alignment specs:

FRONT
Camber
L: 0.37* R: 0.15*
Toe L: 0.01" R: 0.01"
Caster L: 3.17* R: 3.44*

REAR
Camber
L: -0.47* R: -0.24*
Toe L: 0.04" R: -0.07"

My thoughts...
1. Front Camber - Wouldn't ideal settings for this car be zero camber, or slightly negative?
2. Steering wheel - This is just an annoyance, but it's off center.......... Need to take it back to get that straightened out anyways.
3. Anything else you guys notice with those specs?

Thanks for your input!

 
I just added 2" springs and the truck doesn't seem to track as nice at highway speed. I figured I take it to a four wheel alignment shop and they would know where to set... Would it be different settings F&R camber and toe from stock specs?
 
I do as close to 4 caster as possible when I align. camber and toe should be factory spec.

The rear not tracking has to do with panhard. need to get the panhard spacer or get an extended panhard.
