What do you all think of this alignment sheet after 3.5” lift?

Put on the readylift 3.5” kit, went to dealer to get alignment. Kind of confused about the caster numbers. Attached are the pics of the readylift recommended specs and what the dealer gave me. They told me as long as the middle caster number (0.4) was in the green then I wouldn’t have any excess tire wear. Also the camber is not what readylift recommended. May go for a second opinion somewhere else.

The camber numbers, wide bars, top row, if excessive, positive or negative, will cause tire wear. The smaller bar between the two is supposed to be the difference between the two sides. The .5* negative camber on the right front is out of specs, according to your sheet. The left side is pretty close. The handwritten reading for the right side caster calls into question the condition and accuracy of their wheel aligner. The caster readings are out of spec according to your sheet. Toe-in looks pretty good. Excessive toe-in or toe-out will cause tire wear as well.

Did you ask them to align the truck to the Readylift specs? I would have to see what the factory recommended specs were before commenting on the Readylift specs. Not a great alignment, but unfortunately, that's about par for the course these days.
