Define "allowing the suspension to settle "

After in install Icon coil overs, springs, and shocks with front UCAs how long to wait before alignment? 2 miles, 20 miles? 2 days? Just trying to plan things out and make sure the truck is safe to drive.

Usually about a week or so from what I've seen...

have it aligned immediately. then in 500-1000 miles have it checked again.


the alignment will likely be off after you change things, why risk ruining the tires?

perfectly said, most good alignment places have a 6mon or 1 year warranty ask about it first. I have a lifetime alignment from a local place and have got my moneys worth in the first year(don't say anything about the tweaking you do and just say its not driving straight) Firestone is a national chain that has lifetime alignment.

Was just wondering this myself. I'm not about to risk brand new tires to wait for it to settle. I'll drive my Tacoma if I can't get in right away after I do my install, especially after replacing UCAs.
