That really sucks.
here are the alignment numbers, still need to do the rear, will probably get that done this upcoming week.

This is interesting, your caster was at 4.2º when you went in and came out with 2.7º? How's that possible?
I honestly wouldn't be able to tell you, I just know when I was driving after doing the suspension I could hear the tires screeching fighting each other, I went straight to the alignment shop, the shop that installed my suspension did it differently than what I see and dropped the LCA to put the suspension in, maybe changing the geometry of it all?

Look at his toes specs as well. With how far those tires are toed out, It would definitely affect the caster and camber as well. This 4runner is looking great!! I have an '03 V8 Sport in the titanium, and I have been thinking about doing these same mods. '06 headlights and grille and taillights. Love OME kit, but I think I am going to go with the Metal Tech long travel kit in the rear, and I can't decide if I want to do Radflo remote res shocks, or Icon. I have some time to decide though. Need to do some general maintenance on it first.

Looking great. As a fellow 05 sport v8 owner myself, I recommend the next time you have your tires off, buy some spray paint primer and herculiner. Coat your wheel wells a nice clean black. Makes a world of difference.
I currently have the XREAS on and will be replacing in the next year hopefully. love the build!

Your 4Runner looks sweet! Love the headlight conversion! I wish I would have look at this thread before buying my spyder lights.
I'll definitely have to try that out, sounds like a good idea, and I'll take some pics of the side profile of the sliders today if my body stops being so sore from yesterday's installs lol...
Been a little quiet but little by little I've been picking some items off the list, first was the fog lights for the bumper, i went with the baja designs, then i decided to ditch the leather non power seats, had to piece together a sport edition interior from a 2006/2007, the fronts were power and i was able to plug the driver in and it worked no problems.
The passenger i had to run a separate wire from the seat, through the center console up through the firewall and ran it straight to the batter with a 30 amp inline fuse, no problems there, today i decided to grab a compressor, been wanting one forever, hopefully i can find some time to hook it up!
i also was able to finally get my wheel color matched to put in a spray can so i could repaint the hub caps. Not a complete perfect match but it was better than before so I'm happy.
