I recently put a lift a 4 inch in the front and 6 inch in the rear lift and have started to have some wheel vibrations on the front drivers side tire and i recentyl noticed my lca bushings are pretty warn on that side. could that be what is causing the vibes or what could it be?

could be... are they stock LCA's? if so, you might want to look into different ones for that amount of lift.

thats a good bit of rake goin on though...are you gonna level it out?

He said "level them out", as in make the lift the same height in the front and rear. The difference in height might do odd things to your steering geometry.

Likely your bushings where somewhat worn to begin with and if all you did is put 4" of coil and/or spacer, your control arms and track bar aren't made for that. Nor stock shocks. There's a reason lift kits have more than just springs in them. Look at what some other people have done for a 4" lift and imitate them.
