    Hello Houstonians, I will driving up to Houston from the Valley for my Grandmothers funeral. Just wanted to ask whats the weather condition up there like, any hazards and or construction I should be looking for. Its been about 4yrs since I've been up there so Im sure things have changed. Any helps is much appreciated, thanks.


    Also I am taking the opportunity to look for a bed extender while I'm up there. So if anyone has one for sale or knows of someone, I'd be interested in it.

    You have a hill, the bridge between Kemah & Seabrook!! hahahhaha Oh wait, that is outside the city. How about the hill by Allen Landing going to UH-Downtown?? That is pretty steep and you have a great view of Buffalo Bayou.

    Giving Firestone a chance at my alignment. Bought the lifetime almost 2 years ago. Used them once. I'm not confident.

    Oh, they just advised me that they noticed on my history I have a lift kit. It makes it more difficult....

    The one by the Y? I used them after getting my 5100s installed. Provided them with the settings I wanted (2.5, 0, 0) and they did it just fine. Only used once though, and it was a couple of years ago.

    That's the one. They couldnt get it right the only other time I came here after the lift. Hoping they can make the minor adjustments I need done today. My driver front tire is wearing uneven.

    My truck is picky with the caster settings else it'll pull right. Took a good shop a couple of hours and attempts to get it right. Its just a matter of the techs experience and whether they want to put forth an effort.

    Might be too late, but I've had better luck if I specify angles that I want, rather then let then plop it into a range. But do agree it all depends on who is doing it. Good luck.

    Alignment needed no adjustment. At Discount Tire now and they are going to check if the wheel is bent or out of round. Unexplained tire wear...
