There is absolutely nothing funny or incorrect about what I said. I get the feeling you get off on jerking other people around. off.

Well Since were going at one another. With my lift I got new lower control arms. How do I know if I need them or not? How would I reset the angle in question?

By getting an alignment after you install them. And IIRC you'll want to tell them to adjust them between -3.5 and -4 degrees.

Lol, I'm not 100% sure my self.
It's my caster that needs to be adjusted back to 3.5 and -4 degrees?

I was thinking about a lift kit, but after reading all these posts, I doubt I will. Didn't realize so much was involved with making the truck look good higher up. Rats.

Listen!!! If what you meant to say "Is it my caster that needs to be adjusted" Do some damn research on here. That wasn't meant for you Wile C. And just so you know, Up to 3" of lift is no big deal.

Thanks bud! The first paragraph in that write up is all that needs to be said.


And once again to Ripto, I'm sorry for the ridiculous jacking of your thread.
