Recently installed the Bilstein 5100 front struts at the 2.8 setting. I noticed my wheels are angled inwards, is this normal? Not sure if it’s noticeable in the picture14ae041fdc67f8afded5ee9f6a9b4528.jpg

Did you get your front end aligned after they were installed, if not, you need to have it done.

Yeah I got one scheduled for this Friday, you think that’ll do the trick?

Had the same issue with my truck when i did the 2 inch lift in front. I took it to a reg chain tire shop to get aligned got screwed out of $100 they made it worse found a shop that does heavy trucks/lifted vehicles for $120 angles where fixed make sure you find a good shop.

As long as the shop you take it to is competent that will take care of your camber situation. My Ram did the same thing between when the struts went in and it got aligned.

If the "dang" is referring to the photo Tim posted,that's a photo shopped photo,it's been floating around facebook for probably close to a year.Look at the rear wheels,you can see they also lean,solid axles don't lean the tires in at the top if it was a real photo,lol

If they ever came back out with a Dakota I’d put a bag kit on with an 8 hole swap.
