I have them and when I took it in for alignment they were perfect .... no further adjustment other than how they were shipped. Someone will chime in with what they recommend for degrees for a srw. If you have Death Wobble with the 285's I think some guys go 5 degrees ...Cquestad....others 3 to 3.5 degrees. Alot depends on your tires and rims (as in offset). ks

Are those ball Joints actually adjustable? Or are they offset allowing for angle changes at the time of install?
All the offset joints I've installed are a 1 shot deal, and you need to get alignment angles before installing the new ones in the correct way.
