Good evening everyone. I installed a 2" rough country leveling kit over the weekend. Took it in for an alignment on Monday. Below are the before/after results. Does the caster seem a bit high? It claims to be within range, but some of the research I've done makes it seem high. The truck does handle a little differently than before the level. Is that normal after a level?

If its too high you will notice a slightly harsher ride but straight line stability will be very good. The truck will lift up higher when turning the wheel left to right and steering effort would be more although the power rack might hide that.

I wouldn’t worry too much about caster. That essentially will adjust where you tire sits in the wheel well (front to back) and as mentioned above, might slightly change the ride.
