It’s for a late model 1st GEN

 

Anybody need a cheap beater? Getting the wife a new car. Going to get rid of her Altima. 2007. 4cyl auto. 194,xxx. Leaks a little oil. Cracked bumper/grill. $2500

 

You getting her a T4R-right?

 

It’s what all the cool moms drive nowadays.

 

All the hot wamens drive the 4runners

 

Also took my truck to NTB for alignment check, been meaning to do it after AOP, everything still within spec. Pretty surprised by that.

 

I wish. She doesn’t like them.

Support your local government.

 

Truthfully, i suffer from not knowing wtf i really want regarding car/truck/buggy/rocket/etc.

Hoping that i'll know it when i find it.

Also, funding it makes my financial advisor .

FWIW I took my truck to NTB for an alignment after replaceing my ball joints after 8yrs of wheeling and never getting one, and all they did was adjust the toe and told me everything else was good, got the sheet and clearly it was not. Fuck that place. The only place around here that would actually align my truck when it was IFS was a heavy truck suspension place but it was a " we will get it it when we can" type of place.

Now it's 2 levels and a tape measure I use, SAS FTW!

 

Haven't had a proper alignment since I went long travel haha

 

Seems like a lot of places just do toe.
Cheap digital angle finder and a tape measure can get you close enough.

Trial and error to get the steering feel i wanted sometimes took a while.

Found a private shop once that only charged me $20 to fine tune the toe on their machine. He said i had it all so close he wouldnt feel right charging me the full price. Might be worth asking around for a deal like that next time if you DIY.

 

I never could find a decent alignment shop in Indy when I lived there. Tried a bunch of different places and just settled on Firestone lifetime alignments. They could get camber and toe where it needed to be.

Haven’t seen an alignment shop in years since I started living the solid axle life on both the tow pig and crawler.

You change vehicles like other people change underwear in Kentucky!

 

Hmm that's interesting, NTB has been okay for me, they usually put those things on the wheels and then show me the "before" numbers (I ask to see them). They all looked good. Caster was forward but that's on purpose to reduce rear fender wheel scrub. The NTB in my hometown was a little better though, there was an old salt type of guy there who was super nice and was very good at his job.

 

False. In Kentucky they either don't wear em or wear em til so full of holes may as well not wear em.

If i cash out my retirement and sell the house to live in a tent in my mom's yard, then i could get one of those.

 

Glad to see you've found the solution.
