Yeah I got a t-shirt as well, but I asked for it. +1 on the stickers, wish they came with some.

I had them shipped to an address I won't be at until Monday night. I confirmed they've been delivered but I won't get a chance to inspect them for a couple more days

I decided to keep mine and just touch them up. Wish id have gotten a shirt though. I love free swag

Is there supposed to be a washer on the bottom of the bolt going through the uniball?

 

[BrianSD_42]

if any of you guys want stickers pm me your address.

Im going by the shop next week and can pick some up. He gives them out for free.

2 logo types

They have 3x5 logo and written text that is something like 1.5" x 10" saying SD TRUCK SHOP

or "Built Right"

either way I can afford a few stamps.

No, there is a sleeve that goes on the top of the uniball and one goes on the bottom of the uniball. One will have a smaller tapered end that goes into the spindle. Bolt goes through the uniball and spindle then the nut on the bottom.

Got my Built Right's last week and I installed them this weekend. They got to the Truck Shop scratch free, and look great. Also don't have squeaks or anything to report now. Got my alignment back, looks good.

I was curious how much caster everyone is able to get out of these. Just got mine aligned after the install. Alignment tech said he could only reach -3.8 degrees of caster. I was hoping for more. Not sure if the place I took mine for alignment did all they could or not though. My wheel ended up not even being 100% straight so who knows.

Can you please state what the caster numbers everyone got after these were installed. Also, what sort of lift is on your rig? thanks

I havent gotten an alignment yet but my wheels do look farther back than they did before. Im also rubbing on my mudflaps again.

 

[badduc]

anyone have recommendations on places that are good with aligning lifted trucks. We have quite a few jensen tire shops around or should I just go to toyota.

I too was confused about my caster angles when my vehicle was returned. Check this thread, it may help you.

Lift set up: Bilstein 5100's all around, front set at 2.5". 4WD FJ Cruiser coil springs all around with 1.5" daystar spacer in rear

Edit: This was meant for chiahead52, sorry badduc

So today, I checked everything out before the install that will be tomorrow. So the part that goes into the uniball it self, the little round thing, well one of them was made to big. It wouldn't go into the whole. And when placed next to the other one that was good. You can feel it was to thick. I had to sand it down with fine sand paper for 30 mins to make it fit. Little mad that they don't even bother checking if it all fits properly. But still not giving up built right. !!

Are you talking about the misalignment spacer? I had to give mine a couple wacks with a rubber mallet.

Those of you who sent me PMs ... Good news. I have the decals and can mail them out soon. They had to order more and I didn't go by the ship for about 2 months but I have them now.

 

[BrianSD_42]

Here is a sample. The ones I have to give out are like this minus the flag which I added. Also I removed the words Built Right but your decals will include them.
