alignment specs for lift?

[Charlie207]

Are there better alignment specs, vs. OEM specs., for vehicles with (small) lifts? I'm running the Bilstein 5100s on the highest setting. I did get an alignment recently after replacing some front-end parts, and it drives straight, but feels more twitchy than in the past.

I swear there was a post from within the past year (I've tried searching high & low) that had some alternate alignment specs. for GMT900s that had been lifted, and it included pics.

I just have the 1.75-2" lift via Bilsteins, not some crazy 8" mall-crawler build. Would his info still be applicable?

They don't do just lifts..... They did my front suspension ( stock replacements)... They then did a 4-wheel alignment.

Cool! Thanks for the info.

I run the stock numbers on my 4 inch lift... No problems so far been about 7 years now

Yup... there is the road surface..... then the contact patch of the tires to the surface.

@Charlie207 That isn't a crazy amount so any shop should be able to do it. All they need to do is run the factory spec which just specifies what angles the tires should be contacting the road
