    Go to Firestone and get the lifetime alignment. Its like $140 or so but pays for itself. I go in every 3 months just because I can.

    Yeah...Does the place you are looking to go warrant their alignments for any amount of time (like 6 months or a year) or offer a lifetime type deal.

    ^I second that.....I bought it 2 years ago and it's already paid for itself. Plus it's transferable.....meaning that any Firestone in the Nation will take care of you.

    bone stock save for the block lift that came on it with the open country m/t.
    then the firestone you go to must be very reputable, because the one I have a lifetime alignment has lied to me the last 2 times I have been there. Best of luck to the OP,but buyer beware.

    that is my concern. Where ever I go, I want to make sure I get lifetime alignment and they cover it all over the USA. I might just have to drive back to Austin for the alignment.

    I have been going to the Firestone in South Park Meadows in S.Austin. The first time I went in with my truck they gave me a funny look when they saw my LT front end but they always align it well and get it done pretty quick..

Going to make sliders, skids and bed cage/box, I have a camper shell for long range travel. Vision X Tantrum Lights for being a "pimp in the bush", Cobra CB, lots of tools and random junk that helps to add traction due to weight.
    I used to live off of Welsh in CS and went to Leon Sevcik every time I needed help with something I could not handle on one of my vehicles. I had him do an alignment on my old Ford 3/4 ton and on my Dodge 3/4. Mr. Leon is honest and will do a great job for you. He has been in the biz for a long time and has not been successful by messing people around.
