Lift after alignment (1 Viewer)

[Nightbrew]

Good afternoon. I just got done reconfiguring some of my suspension components. 865’s are in the back and ome torsion bars are in to help compensate for the Ironman front bumper and winch. Right now I have 1.25 inches of rake. I will schedule an alignment soon. How will the alignment affect the rake? Thanks in advance

It won't. An alignment won't change the ride height of the front suspension. If you want a little less rake you need to crank you torsions bar a few turns. The general consensus is you need at least 50mm of droop in the front (down travel when a wheel is lifted off the ground) and about 1" of rake. This will ensure you maintain proper handling and ride characteristics.

Rake will have an effect on caster.

Thanks guys. I am happy with the amount of rake currently. I will double check my droop but my last check resulted in a 57mm measurement. We will see how close the shop can get the caster numbers.
