    Looks like an UCA but it’s done and I’m happy! No issues driving home on the interstate so that’s good. Unfortunately can’t get it for an alignment until next week because our mortgage is due and we don’t like having under a certain amount of money in the bank... should be fine until then 3E50C56D-943D-403D-9728-8DFFCF299A6C.jpg D089EF7E-78BE-41D7-AE58-F8A8C2301265.jpg

    Oh yeah. Just a gentle fender massage. You just need some fox DSC coilovers.

    Looking for a place that does alignments but won’t dick me around because of the aftermarket lift and UCAs.. where do you guys bring your rides? I did J&L after my lift and they were good but kinda pricey and seemed like they didn’t like working with aftermarket parts..

    I got mine done at a regular old tire shop. (Sorry not that helpful) but you only need the fronts. The previous auto shop I went to tried to charge me for a "4-wheel" alignment, you can't alignment a fixed axle. So watch out.

    Place looks nice, maybe I'll see if they'll do a re-gear and a locker this coming summer.

    How much was J&L gonna charge?
    Last year mine was $79.99.
    Baileys in Essex was about the same had it done a few years ago after doing the tire kingdom for a few of my first alignments. The guys at baileys are cool old skool guys. The techs let me hang with them and are way more gentle. They made sure everything was free they said tire kingdom did align my truck but without using all the adjustable points. Baileys actually freed up what was not. My next alignment will be at baileys.

    Jeff I didn’t get a quote from J&L but to do my alignment last time with factory UCAs was $60.. I’m gonna get a quote from Priority tomorrow and maybe have my stepdad call baily’s since he sends all his business to them when he can

    Anyone have thoughts on what to use for grill mesh? I think that's next on my list of cosmetic upgrades.
