    Those look like Clazzios. Custom of course, but the stitching and pattern looks just like the ones I have in my truck. By far my favorite mod to date. I have the dark grey set. It matches the Tacoma interior almost perfectly and most people don't even notice right away that they're even there. I've even had to point them out to other members before they notice. I highly recommend them.

    I've been keeping my eye on a 2013 DCSB TRD off-road in Grey, it has 9,000 miles and it's listed for 29,900 at a dealer in Arizona that my friend works at. If all goes according to plan I'll be heading out there soon :fingerscrossed:

    So Firestone has a "Lifetime" alignment deal. $159 and alignments for the entire time you own the vehicle.

    I've heard that a lot of companies back out of those deals once you add new UCAs and lift because it is obvious that it will be an off-road vehicle. Anybody have experience with that?

    From what other TW members have said, they stick to their word, even after suspension change. Firestone that is. I'll let you know, I'm planning a full suspension change early next month and I'll be needing an alignment after.

    So I spoke with the Manger at Firestone, and asked particularly about changing and or upgrading suspension parts; he explained in detail that the Lifetime Alignment is exactly that. For as long as you own the vehicle, you can bring it in for an alignment. He also gave me an example of guys that race their cars wanting their suspension stance set up differently, would go in adjust it, race the weekend and bring it back in for a stock alignment. That's done with few individuals that do that, but it's done. My current set up(Bilstein 5100s with Eibachs an AAL in the rear leaf pack) is just inside the limit of being able to adjust, so he said I would need an UCA, and I mentioned I'd be getting all new suspension, and he said the alignment is covered after the install. Sorry for the lengthy message but I hope this answered anyone's questions about the "Firestone Lifetime Alignment."

    Nice! Hey @RileyLAFD, which Firestone did you go to? I checked a few in the area and some had lousy reviews (granted most were from dumbass people that don't know jack about cars).

    ham if i where you i would go to bear and frame when you get your shit lifted. Even though they don't have life time alignment on the truck. They will do a better job actually alignment correct.

    Fair enough, I am just looking around. How much do they run for an alignment? I understand once I am lifted they do a quality job but until then I am looking for the deal lol.
