Suspension settling???? Wait for wheel alignment?
I just installed an OME lift kit on my 2004 4Runner.... I want to get a wheels alignment but..... Is there a time frame that the suspension is going to settle? Should i wait a week or two? Any advise will help.. Thanks.. OME 884 and 895 with the Nitro shocks front and rear ... Enkei WT4 wheels with Yokohama 285/50/20 tires....

Nice look with the new lift...congratulations. Some well known shops that sell and install lifts say 50 miles of driving is enough to settle things down prior to realigning your wheels after a lift. However you've asked an excellent question and I'd also like to hear what others who have lifts think ??

gusred,

Love how it looks!!

Love the matching tint & shaved emblems!!

What percentage is the tint?

...back on topic...

I would wait ~100 miles before doing the alignment.

Thank you.. I will have over one hundred miles before my next day off for an alignment.. I wonder if there is a time frame that i should wait.. But I think in order to save the life of my tires I will do it on Thursday.. Thanks for the advise..
