I'm running 285s with 1.25" spacers and have mine set to E if I remember correctly. I got minor rubbing at the rear of the fender until I flattened the pinch weld.

I've flattened the pinch too. I like running the 255/85 tires, but there isnt many choices for an all-terrain tire in that size so I might end up going with the 285 when my km2 wear out. I might try the E or F setting and go from there. Still trying to wrap my head around on all this.

this is my allignment sheet. i have eccentric eliminators so i only have 3 options vs a traditional eccentric. my settings are at max caster (rears pointing out, fronts pointing in) and they changed my setting from G to E i believe. i dont rub but this is my allignment sheet. should i try putting the front lobes to neutral (up/down) and putting back to setting G? id doesnt necessarily drive crappy but id like a bit more caster yet my wheel still fairly out forward.

going back to G would decrease your caster even more. I would leave it there on E personally.

Is this applicable to 2.5 - 3 inches of lift, stock fat-lip bumper, and 285/70R17 tires?


Thanks!

This is what I did beforehand, all to the max:

- Both rear cams pushed outward as far as possible
- Both front cams pulled inward as far as possible
- SPC UCAs on "G" moved inward far as possible

With that he simply played with the tie rods...

Sorry, I don't frequent much here lately. I can say that I have almost exactly that much lift in the front. I also have 17s, the same tire size...

Hi All,

My lift kit is about to come in this weekend and I’m going to be getting 285/70R17 KO2s. Does anyone know of a good shop in the Bay Area area closer to Solano county?

Thank you.

Setting F sweet spot

PIC IS WITH "F" ALIGNMENT

After reading all 14 pages, I first of all set my LCA cams as recommended, pushing the wheel as far forward as possible. THEN:

1. Sent it to G on the star plate for the most possible firewall clearance *running 315's*

2. Maxed SPC camber adj all the way in (toward motor for negative as possible)

3. Torqued that nut to 150lbs and and off to the alignment shop.

Castor was acceptable at 2.3 Passenger and 2.0 Driver, toe was perfect, but my wheels still sat like this: \ / I could not achieve the camber I needed.

After chatting with Tom in tech at SPC (who is amazing and drives a 3rd gen), he crunched some numbers for me. backing off to "F" would give me a full 1* neg camber back on EACH wheel and would only cost me 1/10 of an inch of clearance in the back. Not to mention would get Castor numbers up as well.

I did that, took it back in to get the toe re-adjusted, and my numbers are bad ass.

I have to be honest - I have no idea how to interpret this. The 4Runner seems to drive & track well - maybe it has a bit of understeer.

Thoughts on these numbers?

The numbers in the "min/max specification" column is the range your caster, camber & toe should fall within. Looks like your camber & toe numbers are within that range but the left camber is slightly higher than the max range. Your caster numbers are noticeably higher than the max range. If it drives well and there's no rubbing I'd be good with that.

which ubj position pulls the tire backwards?
I have 285s. i adjusted the cams as per the pic below. then placed the UBJ at G position but there was rubbing at the bumper valance. I measured about 4" of firewall clearance and close to 2" clearance between the bumper valance & the tire. I adjusted to F then to E but there was still rubbing. also, I noticed i got about 1" of addtl lift, making it 4" of lift total.
I would like to bring the tires a bit backwards to avoid rubbing with the bumper and bring it back to 3" of lift.

Thank you, appreciate your help.

Here's a couple before I removed rust on the cam adjusters.

After some clean-up...



Hope that helps a little...

Technically, none. The SPC adjustments influence the angle of the spindle, hence caster.

In all fairness, D is neutral, A is +4° (increasing the caster angle by moving the top pivot backwards) and G is -4° (opposite of A)

To move your wheel to clear what I understand you saying you want, you need to move both LCA and UBJ. Here's how I did it (I used cam eliminators)

Rear LCA cam, full positive (outward)
Front LCA cam, neutral (centered)
SPC UBJ, set on E
Fix your camber and toe and go

I'm not running cams, I have cam eliminators, but your rear cam would be all the way counter clockwise and your front cam centered at 12:00 to match the recommended starting point
