    Btf uca/ lift help

    Do you have the adjustable camber kit? Mine did this at first, than I got a alignment, I had to much camber at the top, after they adjusted it it pulled my knuckle away from the spring.

    Wish I could say the same about mine, I have had them balanced twice, still have a vibration. I have already replaced the inner and outer tie rods, thinking my bearings are the culprit. Well I am installing 4.56 gears this weekend so i will go through everything and check it.
