DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

Whats the cost of a decent alignment run these days? DFW frame and alignment quoted me $149

 

Sounds high but not crazy; call Tandem and Tread Depot?

 

I havent been to Tandem for an alignment in probably 2 years but I think they charged around $150 an hour for an alignment.

 

Thanks for the suggestion.

Tread Depot quoted me $100, and even though I dread driving to Mansfield, I might hit them up just to see if they can fix my Falkens that will not freaking stay balanced.


I'm still waiting for Tandem to get off their lunch hour so I can chat with them. They're closer, but going with them means I'm slapping on my new coils tonight and taking off work early tomorrow to get there before they close.

 

Tread depot was 100 last time I did mine

 

Anybody got suggestions for a paint/body shop(Dallas/Garland area)? Had a stray or loose dog attack the wife’s RAV4 last night. Guessing a stray cat ran and hid under her car as it was being chased.

 

Quality Colors in Dallas/Garland. Ask for Mike.

 

Looks like they’re booked out til the end of the month. Hope this isn’t the case everywhere.

 

Wow, that's nuts. They are a good shop, maybe that's why

 

Thanks for the referral, we spoke with Mike and have an appt to get it looked at next week. I’d rather wait for quality work than take it to Service King.

 

Good deal, Mike will take care of you.

 

New to town. Anybody in the group do any wheeling? I’m extremely irresponsible and love to make bad decisions.

 

Hi, definitely new guy. Glad to have you. Check for updates on the indefinitely postponed meet ups on the first page.

Did you get a new truck?

 

Awesome, thank you! I’m a big fan of the next meet up location!

Nothing new, just like swapping parts.

 

I didn’t know if Betty bit the dust and you were transferring some stuff to a new whip

 

Black Betty has been down since last Jambo, Betty White needed a rear end so stole from BB. BB should be getting a 14b replacement so it just made sense.

 

Nice! I’m looking to swap my rear axle too, once I weld it up a bit and regear. Might need your assistance.


Or drink my beer and talk shit.

 

Lemme know, I’m good with both! Came back to the thread, I mean, moved here, in hopes of getting some motivation to get her back on the trails.

 

Howdy, I'm new to DFW (just moved here a month ago). Anyone still do tacoma meet ups? Also anyone know where the heck to go offroad around here??

 

Meets are on an indefinite hiatus. If you want one you can try and put something together and people might show up. As for getting offroad basically everything around here is private property, you have to go to offroad parks. Closest offroad parks are Lonstar Offroad, Northwest OHV(Bridgeport) and Barnwell Mountain Rec.
