    You are replacing OEM billies with OEM billies? if you need a dremel, or angle grinder, those make quick work of the job and I have both

    I have an angle grinder and access to an air-powered cutting wheel. And yes, I'm replacing my whole setup with the oem set from @Me. Projekt because my set is pretty dead.

    @Coot83 might know that place. I like going to High Tech in Chantilly. Their alignment is around $150. @Sand_taco works at Ptuning in Manassas and can get you aligned for around $120.

    If you are on stock suspension still, might as well go to a standard place

    My suspension is def stock enough for a normal alignment.

    I went to merchants for mine and paid I think $89 for 6 months of coverage on alignments. I know they are only merchants, but since you don't have anything crazy suspension wise, that might be ideal for you since in some ways you are considered "stock" with your suspension set up.

    You could also look into firestone where they offer the "lifetime" alignment for $150. If you ever get crazy with your suspension, this could void it, but currently I don't think you would have any issue.

    cars are more since they usually have front and rear adjustment. since our trucks are just front can do it cheaper
