Camber way out?

[Doug18]

Hey guys I did a search but turned up little results.

I noticed that my camber appears to be wayy out today ... I installed OME suspension and got it aligned afterwards but I am really wondering if they did a ****ty job or if the cam is just maxed out in its adjustment

The camber is noticeably out when looking at the truck head on and it is pretty bad IMO because the inside ~1" of the tire seems to barely contact the road (stays dirty)

crappy job, not everyone knows how to align cars, in fact most of then are derps. esp big places like firestone.

Last time I go anywhere but the dealership for sure

well you dont have to go to the dealers, just research first, use yelp and see if the place got good reviews, dealer will rape you on the price, not worth it.

My dealer is actually really reasonable IMO ($49 alignment) but I had a coupon for the other place that put it in at just around $40

wow 49 is cheap, dealer all the way i guess, around here aligment is around 80 bucks non dealer

Got it adjusted and rolling nice now ... the alignment shop apparently had a F@#* **** working the first day I took it in and my issue was quickly addressed and sorted when I took it back in

glad they fixed it b4 your tires got Fu7ked, like i said not every alignment place got the right people, you get a lotta of that in firestone, i swear they hire people off craigslist.

I had mine aligned right after I installed my first setup. Local place in Fort Collins. The guy that did it is also an off-road enthusiast who is a member of a local club here. So I thought for sure he would do the job right. Boy was I wrong!! As soon as he was done, we were standing there looking at the front end, and I said man, that passenger tire sure looks off still. He said no, its just the ground its sitting on, my rack is level, so I know its right. I was like, ok, whatever, the numbers on his print out were all in spec so I didnt argue.

Well, to this day, it is still out of whack, and also, about 3 weeks after the alignment, I was changing out my front diff when I installed my rear e-locker, and noticed that the drivers side front cam was completely loose! That arm was just flopping around. I did my best to tighten it back where it looked like it was originally, but its still off. Talk about a waste of money!! Live and learn I guess.
