The rear is OVERSTEER....and it's not verry good for me......

There is something seriously wrong with the results of the installation. The issues you have are not any of mine. No oversteer or no swaying or no VSA light on, none of that. Like it was stated by Whaleya, it is a tricky installation. Things did go wrong with mine too, but nothing like you are seeing.

I think it goes beyond alignment. What is causing the alignment to be out so much? I just don't know enough to help. The axle alignments and cv boots were my issue.

You need to fit some adjustable links to adjust the toe on the rear, I had to do this after fitting a skyjacker kit as the rear toe was out,
The rim shop who fitted the new rims and aligned the truck could not get the rear alignment right without the adjustable links..

Installation of Truxxx kit, no issues. Garage aligned right to spec recommended from Truxxx. Only issue was a little bit of the grease seepage that everyone talks about but tires, alignment, wear and system are all fine. 17k miles since installation....

[fredyboy]

GOOD news

Everything is OK, the shop make the alignment for the secong time and all the alignment are in the spec.

At the first time the tech take the wrong spec.....

My RL is like new but whit 2'' more inch height.....Finaly i love the feeling, all is the same as before.

Thanks all RL members.

RL ROC on...........

I´ve jus had that same problem as fredyboy: VSA light on when turning, the tail of the truck moving out of the curve. After the installation the rear wheels were 3 degrees out of specs. once aligned the truck feels just like new.

please advice me with 2 issues.. is it really a need to change the swaybar links? the skyjacker instructions recommend to re-torque all nuts and bolts after 100 miles. that would need again to go over the painful installing process again. is it really necessary? what have you guys done?

HI Wagonator

For me, the garage machined the front sway bar link for they are more longer. For the re-torque the guys tell it's not verry necessary in ordinary use (no off-road).
