Ok, I got my new tires and I called & made an appointment to have the put on tomorrow. I was having some serious vibration and uneven tire wear problems. I am also scheduled to get an alignment tomorrow because most of you on this board tell me that alignment is my problem. I spoke to the guy from the alignment shop this morning and I told him that some of these trucks need the 'camber bolt kit' from what I have heard. He said "they will check that & will let me know if I need it." Also, there are not alot of Lightning's around here and the guy on the phone even asked me "what is a lightning"...so...my question is ....is an alignment on a lightning the same as a regular f-150. Is there some different specs I should give these people? I want to get this done right and get rid of this vibration! What can I do, what do I need to tell them? Please help!! Thanks!!

P.S.- If there is different specs, can someone please give them to me.

 

Try here ... Lightning Alignment Specs

So should I give these specs to the alignment shop? Would they have this?

 

Should I give then the "Lightning specifications" or "Lightning owner preferred"?

 

I think the "Owner Preferred" are the setting people are using if they race their trucks on road courses. If tire life is not important and you want your truck to handle it's best go with them. However, I do remember reading that those setting would shorten tire life considerably. Something like 50%, I think.

So I should just give the the normal "Lightning specs". Also, & this may be a very dumb question but...Does it matter if I have 2inch shackles on the back? I mean as far as these specs being accurate? Thanks for your help guys!
