    Like @Shellshock said, it's attached to your VIN, but they'll use your phone number to pull it up. In our experience, they always ask us why we want it. Off-roading is a sufficient answer. They'll align to any specifications you ask for too if you aren't ridiculous about it. Well worth the money. I'll prob get it on my next rolla if I end up getting an alignment at some point just in case I pull a typical blonde and haha oops a curb or something at some point.

    I'm going to Firestone in a couple hours with bertie for some UV dye. I had a kit, but I lost it, and figured I don't want to diagnose where it's coming from anyways. Rolla has been leaving quarter sized drops of oil in the garage once in a while for about 6 months now and I hadn't gotten around to dyeing. Drove to Como last weekend and came back to a puddle. Engine is still full but it's obviously an issue at this point.

    I already got the lifetime alignment. I just wasn't sure how they kept things on file.

    Once I get the lift installed, I'm taking it in.

    RTT has been ordered! I get to go pick it up after work!

    Good idea :thumbsup: any time we do anything to the truck like that we get it aligned. I think when we put the 5100s on was when we bought the lifetime alignment.

    Definitely agree. Currently running 265/75R16 on both my Tacoma and Jeep. Regearing the Jeep from 3.55 to 4.10 solved all of my issues with that one, but I'm not really at a point to justify changing the Taco yet, particularly since I'm only 1" over stock diameter.

    Still also maintain that the transmission ratios are strange and the 0.85 overdrive is less than ideal. OD in the jeep is 0.79; with that, axle ratios, and other general factors I'm still averaging 1.5-2mpg better in a 27 year old YJ than with my 2011 Taco.

    Not really bothered, just observations.

    515 already has the rally 240.
    This one will be more of an old man cruiser for me.

    Reminds me of my days in Ft Benning, sitting next to another soldier in the latrine at the range. No walls and no where else to shit.

    I go in everytime the truck starts to pull on way or another. It's free, so why not? We also bought our tires through discount tire so we have lifetime balance and rotate. (I think)

    I'm wondering if I should go 4.88 or 5.29? 33's will probably be indefinite. If we somehow get big money or I get a gas getter for a daily, then maybe bigger.

    I wish. I'm pretty sure what's going on with that is some closed doors NDA testing. V3 ran king of hammers and placed in the top ten on a 4R, so I'm guessing a select few bought in and got test kits and had to sign NDAs. They are also waiting on the patent to go through. (From what I gather anyway, YMMV)
    but if @BigMike wants to send me a test kit for free, I'd totally run it and sign any NDA.
