ALIGNMENT in Phoenix
I did a search and couldnt find anything.
I am looking for a specialists with lifted 4Runners in Phoenix Arizona that does alignments.
A lot of the techs at the Toyota dealer dont have the equipment with larger tires to do the alignments properly.

Alignment
If Tom is still at Camelback Toyota he can do it, so can Wally at Surprise Toyota again if he is still there. Both are excellent at Modified suspensions on 4Runners. They will both put in extra positive caster to aid in steering feel.

The only equipment needed other than a current alignment machine is found between the tech's ears.

Sonoran Steel may do them, not sure. They would probably know who would if they don't.

Camelback Toyota sends all their stuff to Total Auto Pro's. TAP does good work but one guy that works in the front is a total azzhole so if you send your wife in with the car expect her to report he was an azzhole.

Alignment
Have had excellent service with all my Yota’s at Camelback Toyota. Ask for Eric Murphy, they also speak fluent Landcruiser as well. Their tech Scott is highly experienced with Yota 4X4’s.

Bumping this since it's relevant to me.
Talked to Scott at Total Auto Pros yesterday about getting in Friday before my trip after I install the TRD Pro Fox suspension tonight and/or tomorrow.
He said they had an afternoon meeting in place to decide scheduling and he'll see what they can do. I was kinda surprised when he called me at 8:00 sharp saying he's confident they'll get it done if I can drop it with them Friday morning, and he was clear that they won't guarantee a time but will get it finished.
I'll update after the work is done, but first impression is very good. I appreciate the referrals above.

They had me out in about an hour. I dropped it around 9, and was out by 10 or so. Tech did a nice job, too - I didn't get the numbers since their printer was down, but it drives awesome. Tiiiiiny pull to the right but I'm not going to mess with it right now. After dropping in extended rear sway links a few days ago I am super happy with my setup.

wifes does as well. I'm guessing the tech doesn't like to compensate for road crown as much as other places.

Well it's all for naught, now. Someone decided to change lanes into me Thursday, so the truck's headed to the shop for the foreseeable future. Steering wheel is 45* off now 
Hopefully it's not a terrible amount of work; thankfully the new Fox shocks appear to be in good shape and undamaged.
