95 tacoma... Rebuilt the front suspension.  Moved the upper control arms up an inch and a 1/4. After the alignment I have terrible toe out no camber change throughout the suspension travel, it just toes out.  Do I need to move my steering rack up to counter act this, or what is my best option here? Now the bed.  Will an extend cab bed fit a single cab truck? I dont have an extended cab to measure but there is one for sale locally that I would love to get a hold of. Thanks in advance.. Drgndly

try shimming the rack up it will help with the cycle..............i moved my arms up 2 inches and had to shim up the rack about 3/4 inch because mine did the same thing

a buddy of mine actually got an alignment on his hardbody one time and when he cycled the front the wheels would toe out so bad that they would hit the flared fenders. lol. dont know if thats the same prob you got but i would check into it before tearin up the front end.

yeah, the beds are the same reg vs. x-cab 95-04...the 4 door double cabs (01-04) have shorter beds though

mine toe changes as my suspension cycles. it is very noticeable i am toed out bad when i am laid out and at full lift the toe is in horrible. i was told by an alignment shop it is due to the rack being behind the tires this is the same issue that cause bump steer to be so bad from what i am told as well. it is a problem that from my understanding comes with owning a bagged taco
