So after I had a level kit installed I got an alignment done. Since then, I just added larger 20" wheels/tires which really shouldn't change my alignment. For reassurance I just got a free alignment check and surprisingly my caster, camber and toe was all out wack in the front. They said they could fix the toe easily, but that I would need a caster/camber kit because the 2017 Titan doesn't come with adjustable cam bolts. So I had them hold off till I did some research on what exactly I need. Cam bolt kits are available for about $50. I guess my questions are, what is the difficulty of installation so I can gauge labor cost? Are cam bolts even necessary for just a level kit if you can just adjust toe for proper tire wire? I'm not knowledgeable in this arena so could use some help. thanks in advance :)

I needed them from day one as the truck pulled to the left and had a slight vibration when I test drove it. Took Nissan nearly a month to get the cam bolts to the dealership. Most vehicles come from the factory with eccentric cam bolts.

Titans do not come with cam bolts from the factory. Some very early Titans did, but by 2007 that was not the case. If it is a newer Titan I would buy the bolts myself, install them and then take it in for the alignment. I let the dealer do my cam bolts and they forgot to warn me to bend over.

:laugh: Yeah local tire shop quoted me $30 per wheel for labor plus $60 for alignment. SPC adjustable Cam bolts #87520 around $25 per wheel x 2 = $50. So I'm about $170 all in. I can't imagine what the dealership would charge me for parts and labor.

Your dealer added adjustable cam bolts and did your alignment under warranty?
Some folks managed to talk their dealership/Nissan into that. Very, very few.
