    Learning to do your own alignment is super easy with the SPC. Once you know what your doing you can align your truck yourself in less than 30 minutes.

    Stuff. Also things.
    Good to know SPC is great to work with. I didn’t know until I started researching their UCAs that their facility is only about 15 minutes from me. Guess if I have issues I can just drop by!
    I’d love to learn how to do this one day. One of the big reasons I’m stoked for the SPC arms is that Brian told me that I can get better numbers AND get the tire away from the firewall a bit more. I’m hoping that proves to be true.

    Did they actually back out? Doesn't sound like you changed the gaskets recently so why would they suddenly be loose? You could use locktite but only use blue if anything. I would suspect the gaskets if you haven't done them before and tighten the bolts properly with new bolt grommet things.

    Change the spedo gear in the tcase.

    30 tooth is stock, a 33 tooth is perfect for 4.88s and 33s.
