I had one tire shop align it, but it never felt right. Took it to an off-road shop and they told me it was impossible for the previous shop to 4 wheel align it, because the rear cam bolts are seized. So I just ordered a complete OEM suspension replacement kit through Z1 Off-road today. I'll attach the link, it's US$1,045. https://www.z1offroad.com/service-kits/ ... 008017a1a4
Right now I'm running factory 18's with 275/65-18 Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T's..
After the rear suspension parts get replaced, I'll add the 2" spacer IRS lift, and install the Frontier 6" from Rough Country on the front. I've heard mixed reviews on the RC lift, but Fabtech no longer makes anything, and I've read that Calmini seems to have an issue getting parts sent out.
Just a follow up. I did get all of the new rear suspension installed, and still have a slight alignment issue. I didn't do my research completely... Everything is all within spec, except for the toe is still out slightly. From what I've read, I will need to get offset rear upper bushings, and that should help with the toe and camber. From how I've read it (and I could be wrong), you can have the camber correct and the toe out, or the toe correct and the camber out without replacing the bushings to these. https://www.4x4parts.com/i-22756999-rea ... hings.html521ton wrote: ↑Sun Feb 05, 2023 3:59 pmI have a 2008 LE with the 5.6.
