Bilstein 5100 alignment issues
Anyone else have issues aligning your truck after you install Bilstein 5100 leveling shocks? Took my '15 XLT FX4 supercrew to a local shop to get shocks installed and to get it aligned. After the shocks and front struts were installed (set to 1.75in height) they were not able to get the passenger side camber aligned and the truck will go straight only if i turn the wheel slightly to the left. Will be taking it to another place to see if they can get everything corrected but I'm curious whether or not I'm the only one having issues with the alignment.

Ive installed Bilstein 5100 on about a half dozen trucks, half dozen adjustable coilovers and 3-4 dozen leveling spacers on F-150s from 04-Present and none have ever had a issue with alignment afterwards.
