Took the TB42E LWB GQ in to the dealer to sort out the front leak around the hub/swivel hubs. The rig has a 2" OME lift with 33" tyres. Not been jumped, just loads of dune driving. I had taken the GQ to another mechanic before in Jan 07, to repack the hubs for leak on the RHS only, and asked that both sides be re-packed.
Also the GQ vibrates above 80-100 km/h and has slight wobbles around that speed at times, but not always.
Dealer got an alignment done, and found the following measurements in degrees:
castor 1.9 LH and RH
Camber -0.3 LH and -0.2 RH
The lift does not have any castor correction, other issues are that the RHS brake disc needs grinding.
Would the above measurements be normal for 2" lift, as the nissan dealer is not familiar with lifted patrols, and are they just interpreting incorrectly.

sounds ohkay to me... if those numbers start getting around the -1.1 mark then start looking into getting a new diff housing or the diff straightened (offset shims etc)
just in case, theres a mob out at Narellan (sydney) truck allign who do bends while diff still on the car.
LOL, just saw your in the UAE, so that place in sydney aint gonna be much help to ya.
