Just pulled up my last alignment. It looks like camber is within factory spec. It seems all I need to do is reduce travel. Maybe the TC shocks are slightly shorter than other brands?

I was able to remove my dust boot and to my surprise, the TC da shocks come with one packer installed. It is sitting below the bump stop but i was planning to put them above the bump stop. Anyone know if there is a more desirable location or does it not matter?

Update: never mind about which side the packer should go, it has to be below the bump stop. Above the bump stop at the very top the shaft is a little larger and the packer doesn’t clear the big part of the shaft. Also, I learned that the packers I purchased a while ago are too small so I have to by another set. Grrrrr.
