    Hey y'all

    I just wanted to get some recommendations on where a good place to get a 1/2/3 year or lifetime alignment deal for my truck. I think I'll want to do it here an there as I do lift options and occasionally off-road. I got the TSB leafs and I believe the dealer jipped me of an alignment...

    I'd still need this eventually tho... I heard about a Firestone $150 deal once but figured some of you prolly shopped around and can Lead me in the right direction...

    Thanks

    I got a life time alignment from Expert Tire here in Visalia, CA. I want to say it was about $179. So far I've used it 4-5 times.

    I called firestone and they confirmed it's $179. I'm sure when I get it they won't like me either ;)

    Thanks guys....

    I have it.
    $140 Even.

    I've used it 6-7 times already. You'll need them to check it after its done. They seem to get mine wrong sometimes. ​

    Thanks for the info, gents. I used to get lifetime alignment back in the day, but didn't think such an animal still existed. I'll have to check out Firestone, now that I have a 4x4....

    Hm I got to see if I can push them down to that, maybe cash will do ;)

    How do you check it after? Their readings from the alignment?
