The higher caster will give you straight line stability and better "turn-in" on corners, as higher caster will naturally cause the tires to gain negative camber in a turn. What you're probably feeling in terms of the turning resistance is a combination of camber (you didn't really mention what you're at but I'll assume probably a little positive or near zero) and SAI (Steering Angle Inclination). Usually SAI gets out of spec when we lift our vehicles and rarely can you bring it back within specification (though sometimes you can), it's an often over-looked measurement because there isn't a whole lot you can do with it on most Toyota suspensions save for replacing parts (we'll use it occasionally on curbed cars to get a rough idea if the spindle got ****ed if we think it's borderline). But SAI does affect "Steer Camber" which can affect the effort you feel when turning; like I said dropping the Caster towards 3.5° to 4.0° and maybe shooting for about -0.05° or -1.0° of Camber might help with that steering feel. I would also try chalking your tires if you haven't done it to determine what your ideal tire pressure should be for your vehicle.

For example fox TRD Pro shocks have about 1.5" of extended travel over the normal ones. AND - the stock UCA has plenty of ball joint range of motion for extended travel shocks. Also many aftermarket shocks are extended travel - they just don't say on the marketing. Bilstein, Ironman, OME etc often have just as much travel as the "extended" travel ICON or Fox setups.

I just talked to the shop and will get it in next week sometime and report back. I've sure learned a lot about alignments in the last few days...

Portacool would be a losing battle. We're over 100° and will stay there until October.
