    Threw two bikes in the back to go to a holiday lights fun ride (actually a couple of nights ago). Was glad to see that I could fit them both into my short bed since I have the double cab. Just leaned them out each side...and managed to scratch one side of the bed with my handlebars :( .

    Went to get an alignment after my lift today, and wasnt pleased when i was told the inner tie rod is seased. They said they soaked it with pb blaster and heated it up and didnt get any luck. My toe is way out of spec and i need to fix this soon but dont know how.

    You can still align it with one tie rod seized, the steering wheel just won't be strait.

    EDIT:
    To add more detail, the shop just has to turn the steering wheel until the toe on the tie rod that is seized is within spec. Then adjust the opposite tie rod normally until both sides are in spec. Crooked steering wheel, but tires won't wear out prematurely.
