Never had perch adjustment done, did just take it to the dealership for an oil change and tire rotation but they made no mention of it. I looked on Sdhq but didn't find them for sale... I will get them just so I can prevent this from future issues... Any ideas how to get them?

Ok never mind I found them... So I only need 2 of these? What about the back two bolts? Or does just the front have the movement issue?

After I did my mid perch and had my truck taken in that day for an alignment they said my bolt was like that too. Not sure how that could've happen seeing how it hasnt gone off road yet but they where able to take a pry bar and get it done. All aligned with out a camber kit.

You need two kits each kit has two in it so four total.
They are $37.00 on sale right now on Amazon for each kit.

Really?,! I just looked and can't find em :(

Just checked they are still available at $37.43 best price I have ever seen, I think they have free shipping, look up part number 86250 lots of items come up for that number but they are on the second page they have 14 remaining.
I bought mine from ADD they were more expensive plus I had to pay shipping and taxes. You could call some of the vendors for a price match?

This is somewhat common and I have seen it on several raptors that have never seen the dirt. Mine has been that way since day one and I have had the alignment checked and all was well. I believe it to be part of the manufacturing process ie hanging the parts on the vehicle with loose bolts then tightening everything down

I got the alignment cams, and so far no issue. Did some heavy offroading this weekend along with a few jumps. The truck drove home straight. You can also take a sharpie pen and mark the cams with a line. Then check later if there is any relative movement, meaning your alignment is out. See the sticky post on alignments.
