Wheel alignment after lift.

Tassie,
I read your post on myswag. There is another way to get the strut out without removing the upper ball joint and thus leaving the brake lines vulnerable.
See my post here, from step 9 onwards.

Good to see another Bilstein 5100 install in Oz.

I always ask for a before and after but i sometimes forget the collect the data.

On my Race Corolla i use
Castor - As much as the guards will let me but its mostly around 3.5deg
Camber = between 1.8 & 2.4
Toe = depends on the track but mostly between .5-1mm toe out.

On the Prado i use
camber = as much as they can give me but make them even but never more then -1deg.
Castor = same as camber.
Toe = always .5 out

I haven't had the Prado long but the before and after was 100% better. As mentioned it depends on your driving habits too and what loads your carting.

I thought I'd let you know seeing as you are going to drop the circlip down one groove
Don't forget another alignment after dropping the circlip.

G'day
Just had a set of Tough Dog and poly airs fitted yesterday and part of the price included a wheel alignment. So far (just a short drive home) happy with the work done and ride. Might look at moving the location of the inflation points for the air bags though. At present they are near the trailer plug.All very exciting

cheers
