Hey guys, so Im getting my PSS installed tomorrow, but i have a weird issue. My car is lowered on cjpp springs with 1 inch spacers. The drivers side rear is near replacing, but the passenger side rear is completely toast down to the wear bars. Normally i would attribute that to a bad alignment, but its even wear across the tread, no heavy inside like camber would do. I also had my alignment done a couple days after my springs and it came into spec.

Any ideas why one side toasted so quick compared to the other? Would bad toe cause that and wear evenly across the tire? Car tracks and drives perfect

Toe can cause feathering across the tread and can cause inner or outer tread wear depending on excessive toe in or toe out. Not sure what you got going on though.

Take It back to the shop that did the work and have them re-check the alignment, toe and camber. I have the same setup as you and haven't had any Issues and It's been a few months now.

I had a local shop do the CJPP springs, they had to lower the shock towers as per ford's spec and also had to charge me extra for camber plate usage as well, I got a GT500 2014 alignment from what the paper says and all checks out green for the alignment as well.

if you got a 2014 gt 500 alignment, did they even check the rear as the 2014 had a live axle not an IRS
