You may have got ripped. If not, they were installed wrong.
All spindles installs effect camber, toe, and a bit of caster, but an alignment makes them all good again.
If your Tahoe won't align, it's not from the spindles. Even the taller Belltech spindles align if no other drop component is used in combination with it.

The techs and I all sat around and talked about all potential problems and solutions for like 2 hours not exaggerating and we all decided by looking at the truck and googling things and what not it HAS to be the spindles being incorrect.

and I mean how in the world do you install spindles incorrectly tho?

Ive done it myself three times and the only reason I didnt do it myself this time is because I have just had my fill of spindles for a lifetime lol.

its literally impossible to do something wrong it seems.

ill be pulling my truck into the garage to start setting up the nitrous lines in a few. Ill snap some pics of how mine look so you get a reference of the belltech vs mcgaughys just so you can see both. did they try to adjust toe? im trying to figure out what your seeing since ive installed both and never had a problem with either belltech or mcgauhys.

did the spinldes say LH2007/RH2007?

Ok I guess you did get ripped.
Also, when I said it is not from the spindles, I meant from the design of the spindles.
Message the guy and work it out with him. If he gives you the stiff arm, hit him with a PayPal claim.
