Camber / Toe Correction Parts Necessary?

[John McClane]

I'm planning on lowering my truck shortly after it arrives.

How necessary are:
1. Front camber bolts,
2. Rear camber arms
3. Adjustable rear toe links

I'm happy to pay for these parts if necessary, but it seems as though many who have dropped their trucks aren't using any of these parts. I'm not sure if that is a cost decision, or they're just not needed because the truck is able to be aligned correctly without them.

I haven't decided between the Eibach, Good-Win, Steeda or H&R springs (I wont be going with coil-overs or the H&R Super Sport, they're going to be too low for some of the country roads I drive on.) I plan on adding the Steeda strut tower brace and wither the Steeda or Good-Win sway bar.

Also - If you have a recommendation / preference on any of the spring options above I'd love to hear it.

I'd go with the H&R sport or Good-win springs for ride quality & keeping a rake for towing/hauling. The Steeda springs have an awful lot of dead coils. Their rear sway bar is my favorite mod- almost feels like driving a sedan. The Good-win one is heavy & overbuilt. The strut tower brace gives a little more rigidity & road feedback when pushing it, but it's not a huge deal.

I've read of many with lowering springs within or close to factory specs after an alignment, but my largest concern would be the rear toe.

Great info Harry.
thanks.
