What did you do with your 4runner today?

Got the alignment taken care of since the new UCA's and I'm not entirely happy. I told the shop to get the caster anywhere between 3-3.5 degree and when they finished they told me the most the could get it to was 1.9 & 2.2 degree. According to them once you get around 3" of lift on a Toyota there isn't enough room the get it that far apart. So whats the deal here cause almost everyone I've seen with 3+ inches of lift is running at least 3 degrees of caster.

You should be able to get over 3deg on caster with those UCA's. Sounds like they didn't know what they were doing.

Yeah, I had a feeling they were bullshitting me since I've seen plenty of 4runners running more than 3deg. I just don't know enough about how its done to call them out on it. Surprisingly it was a shop that specializes in lifted trucks. Looks like I need to find another shop.
 
After 3 weeks of ownership...
Sunday:
Hooked up our camper and set up Prodigy P3 controller. Locking up the trailer tires was kinda fun. :mullet:

Today:
  • Installed Weathertech mats & cargo liner
  • Installed license plate
  • Took our 1.25-year old boy to Ace Hardware to get license plate bolts & washers. Took him to a park with dirt roads so we could exercise 4LO and CDL. :happy:

Tomorrow:
Go camping with the family.
 
Got the truck aligned at Toyota and they did a great job, feels amazing now with the lift & tires. I'll post up my specs later.

Also got the BST done.
