It doesn't ride rough at all...It actually rides quite nice. That's the second perch out of 5 settings...check the forums - second perch is fine. I've been doing some reading on caster and I'm not quite as concerned now as I was. The toe and the camber seem good and I can't say I've noticed a huge difference in the steering between stock and the lift. As far as I can tell it drives as well as it ever did - I'm just not noticing a "wow this is amazing" sort of difference and I was wondering if dialing the alignment in perfectly, caster included, would give me a better ride. I'll leave it for now but perhaps in the near future see if another shop can't do better on the alignment.
