Looking at your alignment sheet from the shop>

Your:
Front Right toe is quite a bit off! at .21°
It should be .03° (with a deviance +/- of .12°)

Left Rear toe is WAY off too, at .32°.
Same as above.

I'm guessing not only are you experiencing that pull but also poor MPGs...
And, eventually you're going to get premature tire wear too if you leave them as it is. > Keep an eye on your tire treads, especially those that have the excessive toe.

Your dealership should have tested your alignment on the machine and Not just drive it around.
The tolerances of these AWD vehicles are too stringent to try to figure out by "eye-balling it" or by feel.


I'd suggest you make note of which tires they were and have them rotated to the back axle so to mediate further premature wear.

Bringing this back from the dead...we are looking at ordering a 40mm spacer lift kit soon. It does state that an alignment will be needed..Is there enough adjustment on the stock setup to adjust what is needed? Or should I look into replacing the arms with the adjustable MOOG ones for camber? Thanks

There will be none. Her arms for the rear and bolts for the front.

Ok, do you think 40mm would really cause that much for needing an alignment? I did a 2" spacer lift on my xterra and it was still really close to spec.
