Doesn't look like anyone wants to touch this one!

I havn't really got any idea myself but I can't think why you would run out of thread when adjusting wheel allignment. Mabey they weren't adjusting the right thing? Were they suggesting it was something to do with the 4" Lift? I didn't think having a lift kit really effects wheel allignment like that. Camber for sure but not allignment?

If you had suspension lift it would make sense, but not with body lift...
No idea, sorry.

they must be talking bout tie rod ends cause thats the only adjustment on a Lseries...You cant adjust camber or caster only toe on a Lseries...but if ya not sure take it back and ask them...who did get to do it?
