    Well my ears having been ringing since 1982 when I was first assigned to MCAS 3RD MAW El Toro . listen to fighter aircraft taking off or landing 24/7 flight ops , that'll destroy your hearing quickly

    All of my Jeeps I had and now my Tacoma has a Detroit locker in the axles . I never liked a limited slip as its not 100% traction to both wheels . I've pulled many jeeps and other 4x4s out of trouble where I easily walked over that same area

    My Camaro has a full spool in the rear axle and running drag radials on the street

    Yep, entered the Air Force in 1983 ... seems like we weren't real strict at enforcing the use of hearing protection the first half of my career. I do have to admit all the shotgun shooting I did as a kid growing up didn't help much either.

    Finally talked to 3 shops about alignment.
    1st was honest and told me they don't have much experience with lifted trucks and recommended one.
    Talked to them 90 for alignment and 90 an hour labor if starts to take extra time.
    3rd is closest to house 90 alignment 80 an hr labor.
    Just don't know.

    My shop was very close to a run up area of one of the 10k runways . nothing like listening to F4 Phantoms taking off all day long . Also the occasional C5 Galaxy or C141 Star lifter screaming its lungs out


    Shooting a Ma Duece .50cal or M60 7.62 mg with no hearing protection did me in

    We'll have to agree to disagree on this one for daily drivers. They are great for the track or off-road. Didn't you say yourself that you've already almost lost the truck in the rain?
