Performing front end alignment in my garage and I am unable to locate my factory repair manual.
Front end appears a little high. I measured 1.5 inches ride height. Installed Magnum force upper control arms. Thank you.

I just checked, it says 1 3/16" +/-1/8"

Hope this helps
Ken

I would suggest setting the ride height to where it looks good to YOU with the tire/wheel combo you have. bounce/jounce it & it may settle over time but you have your own alignment tools to recheck/reset as needed.

The ride height doesn't always settle into the same place after jouncing. So far I'm able to obtain about +4.5 caster with the Magnum Force upper A arms. I'm going to check alignment at different heights to dial it in. Thank you

I have M/T P31560R15s on the back 30" tall and P2156515s 26" tall on the front. So I'm not sure exactly how having the larger back tires will affect alignment but I will be finding out soon. Thanks again
