I found so many specs and before and after specs for the 4th gen 4Runner but not ONE for our GX.

I guess I'm the only one here that got an alignment after I lifted my GX.
PIONEER!!!!

4th gen 4Runner and the FJ Cruiser are the same chassis, specs should be the same. You may have trouble getting to the correct caster after a lift due to the disparity between the upper control arm axis and the lower control arm axis; caster decreases as the wheel drops (or the vehicle is lifted) and increases as the suspension compresses. After market UCAs address and fix the problem.

All of the after specs are green but I want to know what the OEM specs should be. I think I found it but I want to confirm. Usually on the before / after print out it'll show a target area but Toyota did not include that on my spec sheet.
And FYI the alignment specs for the GX vs the 4Runner / FJ are not the same.

I would expect the GX470 and the 4th gen 4runner ltd to have the same alignment specs, as the suspension is all the same.
What makes you say they are different?

I asked the Toyota tech when he was doing my alignment and he looked in his computer system and said they don't. Unless his system is wrong I have no reason to doubt what he said.
Also because I found different specs for the 4Runner vs the GX online. I don't know if they're accurate or not that's why I asked if anyone knew what the OEM alignment specs were for our GX.

When Toyota was doing my alignment I walked across the street to Lexus and ordered a part for my GX. It's supposed to be delivered Tuesday so I'll ask the Lexus service dept. when I go there what the specs should be since nobody here seems to know.
At times like this I really miss my Tundra. I would've found the specs within 1 min. of searching on a Tundra forum.

That is very strange. It least on your rig they decided (as did I) that the negative camber was stupid.
