TwoTrack's 05 Tundra

What do you preset them too? How much lift do you have?

 

[MobTuff]

I have them set to the default 0 degrees ball joint setting / +2.0 degrees caster. Not sure exactly how much lift I have as I adjusted the coil over until the truck sat at a height that looked good to me.

I took some pics of it in the driveway for you. I also have an add a leaf in the back but also have equipment, lumber rack, ladders and shell. Not sure how much weight that all adds.

Truck looks good, where do you preset the camber setting in the slot? Farthest out, in, somewhere in the middle?

 

[seanson]

the settings depends on what type of suspension setup/mods you have done. for instance, a coil lift vs a spacer lift or different shocks etc. mine are set to plus 3.75 caster with the camber at max negative (top of wheel pushed in as far as possible).

the arms are the rough tune to get you close and the oem adjustments are used to dial it in.

i just did some lca bushings and my settings are way different than they were before to get a similar/same spec.

hope that helps...

 

[seanson]

the main point of these arms (on top of all the nice extras) are to get your alignment BACK to FACTORY spec. after a lift is added; as caster/camber is usually lost.
so shoot for oem alignment specs and you should be good to go...

That helps a lot, I don't want to make it any harder on the alignment guys. I'm shooting for about 1.5" of lift and want max caster. I would have thought that you'd want to push the camber setting out more towards the wheel.

We're coming up next week to scope out some areas. My parents live in Granite Falls but I'd like to live closer to Seattle as that's where I'm most likely to find work.

I'm a bit south of there near Tacoma. There's a fantastic adventuring community here called Northwest Overland. Tons of organized trips all year long.

I'll have to check it out. There seem to be a lot of nice homes in Tacoma and the commute doesn't seem bad. Tacoma seems to get mixed reviews as far as living there. Its definitely somewhere we plan to check out but would prefer to stay north of Seattle and closer to family.

The actual city of Tacoma isn't great living in my opinion. Some of the smaller surrounding towns are very nice. I'd either go south by me or well North of Seattle so that you're either in pierce or Snohomish counties. King county is expensive for property taxes.

Thanks, thats some solid info. NWOL looks like a good group of people too.

Haha, that bad huh? We're going up next week to scout out some areas and I actually have a few job interviews lined up. I can't wait to fly fish on some serene rivers and streams!

I had a buddy that lived there and his car or house was broken into every few months. It seemed excessive. That being said, I've never been there and there are always bad neighborhoods in every town.

Better get your spey cast down.
