I took my hilux in for an alignment after I did the tierods and put new tires on, to a shop that I trust and the guy told me it was way out of alignment. He wasn't able to get it perfect, but said it shouldn't wear. He had to tighten the sleeve of the tie rod on the passenger side all the way in to get it as close as he did.
I spoke with him and asked him what I can do to fix the situation and he said that two bolts used for adjustment on the driver side lower control arm are stripped and that they need to be replaced. He said once that is done it should be able to be aligned properly. He also recommended replacing the two other bolts on the lower control arm because they could be bad as well.
English is his second language so something may have been lost in translation, but does this sound right? I tried googling similar problems and got nothing really.
Cheers,
Ian
