Thank you for this insight! I will contact the dealer of the lift kit about those extra parts or any other recommendations.
Thanks also for helping me with the correct words for these parts! Yes I am asking about the control arms (product link), and yes the rear control arms do have eccentric adjustment bolts, but adjusting these to their minimum isn't sufficient according to the shop, and more-eccentric bolts don't exist.
It seems that the toe-out comes from the fact that the rear upper A-arm isn't mounted parallel to the vehicle, but angled backward (image), so the lift causes the axle hub to lean forward into the control arm which therefore turns the wheel outward.
In the front, it's not a problem because both toe and camber were fine before and after. Front upper and lower A-arms are mounted parallel to the vehicle (image).
Glad i could help!
I didnt even consider angle mounted control arms! Sorry about some semi-wrong info then….!
Your Imgr link isnt working for the picture, but i have seen the style you’re referring to…i just didnt think about them while typing out my reply! So that all makes sense then.
Let me/us know what you get figured out! Always fun to learn new stuff!
