Wow. Don't let that shop touch your rig again.

Yea, a lesson sadly learned. Been a very frustrating journey from the start and something that I was so excited to get done to my rig.

Looks like everything is in order. Double check the torque on all the bolts and go from there. Like @Shots said, it must have been the picture playing tricks. Good luck and post if you need anything.

Yeah it sucks when something your looking forward to becomes a hassle/problem. Hopefully all is well now, and you can enjoy the lift as you should have been able to do from the beginning.
FWIW, I've heard nothing but good things about the Dynatrac lift.

Thank you again to all for the help in getting things resolved. Since the Synergy LCA's were switched to be installed correctly, there have been no issues and steering and handling is back to what it was pre-lift. I'm much happier now.

I just put my FOX SHOCKS on yesterday your front lower bolts are backwards. I wonder if you can remove the lower bolt without removing tLCA normally nut on the inside. Dont know it it makes a difference for you but noticed it cheers.

Thank you! The issue was resolved once the LCA's were removed and installed correctly. They were installed backwards.

Hey Pete, how are you liking the lift now that you've had a few months on it? I've had it on mine since the Summer and I still love it today.

Hey Sean, I'm very happy with how it rides. I wasn't very happy initially with the lift once installed because it was marketed as not needing any addition upgrades to the suspension. It was horrible after the lift install with the axles shifted and the caster being way off. No way I could have driven it daily without putting on LCA's and front and rear trackbars after the lift install; which I had to do.

I'm still running stock 33's. I'm at 29,000 miles, so I'm assuming that the tires will need replacing soon and at that time I'll do the battle in my head as to whether to go 35's or 37's.

Good to hear. I went with 35s because I didn’t want to regear yet. I sold my 33s on FB marketplace which offset the 35s by about half, so that was a plus.
