Yeah, it could be a bearing, but those bearings aren't a servicible bearing. You just press out and press back in.

ALSO you have to be really careful when they are pressed out, you can damage that RCD knuckle really easily when pressing out the bearing. I damaged one of mine when we were pressing out the hub to do a manual hub conversion. I had to order another from RCD and I was down for 2 weeks.

Ok, question for you guys. I have an 04 DC 4x4 with the RCD lift set at 4". So, if I am correct, essentially there is "no" suspension lift. (Yes i know i still need to post picture, lol).

I think what i'm not liking about my truck is that the alignments suck. Crappy shops, need to find a good one. I have been reading all the threads on DJ's alignment recommendations and am wondering if these would still hold true for my truck since there is no suspension lift. If any of you could provide me with any insight it would be gratly appreciated.

DJ's specs are essentially the TOYOTA specs but are a NARROWER and more presice spec. I always use them when aligning ALL Trucks I align, lifted or not.
Camburg or TC upper control arms will also help with the alignment, they allow more adjustment so it can get closer to stock specs.
