I installed the AC deluxe suspension package a few months ago but didn't get the truck aligned right away. I wanted to wait until I got new tires. Well, I got new tires a few days ago and brought the truck in for alignment at a Nissan dealership today. All of my alignment specs were out but all were brought into spec except for rear toe. Its way out of spec! Factory spec is -0.7mm to 2.6mm. Mine is -13.2mm on one wheel and -6.6mm on the other. I had a feeling something was wrong because I went through a pair of rear tire really fast after installing the lift. Now I'm searching for solutions because I don't want the accelerated tire wear and I feel my huge toe-out spec is causing stability problems when I go over bumps at high-speed when the road is curving. The backend wants to step out.
I reviewed the before and after alignment printout very carefully and learned camber adjustments will affect toe and vice versa. By brining my camber into spec... my toe was thrown even more out of spec.
