Orange County CAF's: up to no good

I got it just found the diagram ... i shoudl have started there haha ... been too long since u got my hands dirty still a lil rusty

 

Ok

 

Ok, good to know.
Reason I was a little worried is that my fathers had the same battery in his tundra since 2008, and about the same timeframe for the family sequoia! And they still run strong!

 

Thought I'd ask, if anyone has a recommendation for a decent alignment shop? Seems like allen tire/pepboys etc never know what they're doing

 

Goodyear in Laguna is pretty good. They have done mine for the last few years

 

I use firestone as well, with the lifetime. Some of the places won't do it if you have mods though.

 

No pun intended, LMAO!!!

 

I hear among the members who have been around longer have said Bear Alignment is better then the Firestone/Sears type. They are also a franchise place. @TommyG being one of the recent one who had his truck aligned.

 

Exactly. Know a few prerunner guys do this. Then you can rent out an industrial area if you have a bunch of tools.

 

My firestone does good as well. Although, I cant hold an alignment for shit. Got my cam tabs in the mail this weekend so I have to get those burned on soon.

 

Who makes the tabs you ordered up?

 

Total chaos.

 

Let me know how that goes and if you notice a difference after a wheeling trip. I got an alignment over the weekend and I guess my tabs are practically flat now. As the tech said "worn out" haha. It'll be a little while for me to save up for them + install, I guess it's a 4-5 hour job to weld them on so it ain't cheap!

 

I've talked and/or typed with several people that have said they haven't needed to have an alignment hardly if ever since the new cam tabs went in. I've never wheeled with them so but I've seen pics of their type of wheeling which tells me I'm making a good move.

 

They drive like pussies then....i've had several alignments since my cam tab gussets went in a couple years ago. I would advise tightening down your LCA bolts after alignments. They always seem too loose to me after the shop tightens them. Plus if you can go to Bear Alignment and brake you will get the best alignment your truck ever has had. Plus they are only 55 bucks but the knowledge of those guys is priceless.

It's actually post #634

 

Thanks brother, Tom. I believe ya. When you and a couple speak others I certainly listen. And Bear is an outfit I'm going to as soon as my tabs get burned on. Well worth the price. Depending on weather forecast I may head to Bishop in 2 weeks for a Fri after work through Sunday thing. Gonna hit the hot springs, some ownens fishing, and the June lake loop up north a bit for some gorgeous views and of course grub and the Tigrer bar of June lake. If you and any others here wanna roll let me know. First 5 rigs are in
