Got my TeraFlex front lowers today from 4WD (Thanks Bustabizz!). What would you recommend as a starting length on the adjustable controls arms given the stock length is 22 5/8" and I'm running 33's on a 2.5" coil lift ?

I have an angle finder so it sounds like I'll be able to see the relative difference in the caster angle using before/after angle measurements and according to the printout above from my last alignment I'm currently at 2.7°/2.9°.

Any feedback would be appreciated !

I do!

I have the caster just over 7 degree's. It handles great
