    Alignments are straight forward. Especially if you give them the specs you want. There is no way to fuck up an alignment if the tech can read numbers. The hunter systems tell them exactly what to adjust. Just make sure they tighten the cam bolts to the correct torque otherwise they come loose knocking out the alignment or causing a metal ting ot clunk sound depending on how loose they are

    Do you have aftermarket uppers? My alignment is currently 4 degrees of caster on each side. Toe and camber are set to stock.

    Just called my local Firestone

    $179.99 for the Lifetime Alignment plan. So it's covered as long as I have the vehicle. They didn't ask about if it's modified so I didn't say anything...will show up and see what happens, I guess.

    There should be nothing that they should have to worry about. Theyre really only going to adjust tie rod and LCA bolts... especially if you have a uniball as then they don’t have to fuck with the UCA

    Then I would just align to stock soecs or see if you can get the caster towards 2.5-3 but I don’t think you can achieve that on stock UCAs. I have the Total Chaos and I can achieve upwards of 5 but thats way too much. I was at 4.5 for a while now at 4. Ill dial it back to 3.5 soon. I might drop it off today honestly

    I'm going JBA as well. Gonna install them tomorrow actually!
    Why? Of all the reading I've done, the only issues is from when they were new, and all issues have since been corrected.

    Speaking from first hand knowledge is helpful, instead of a blanket statement: “Do not buy JBA”

    Helpful for the guys that are looking, exploring and learning options.
