    Stuff and junk and things...
    I have an extra set of bump stops I cut about 1/2" off and used that to bump out the A arms. Hopefully have enough wiggle room at full stuff.

    How do you change your title? Is that a mod thing, or can you change your own?

    I spent a lot of time staying with family in the Seattle area when I was growing up.

    I want to move there but my job prospects might be pulling me in the opposite direction.

    Don't do it... Colorado is about as far East as I ever want to be (in the US)... I want to eventually move back to central Oregon... it's weather is A LOT like Durango, but the beach is only 2hrs away and my family is there.

    Sure does get the job done

    Wanted to check out that trail but didn't know anything about it and didn't want to run it solo.

    Likewise. I have that bookmarked in my TrailDamage folder but do not know anything about the trail and it seems like it might have a couple of sketchy places w/o bypasses.

    Yeah, I'll be facing some tough career decisions come the end of summer. Hopefully I will have options, moving farther away for a few years and saving to come back might be a very real option

    Took me a minute to figure out. You click "Multi-Quote" and then you have to click "insert quotes" on the left side opposite "Post Reply". It only shows up once you choose "Multi-Quote" on someones post. Single quoting, like this post, is still the same.

    You can also toggle "Multi-Quote" on and off as needed.

    So that little trail run this weekend hammered my alignment.
    The wife took it in to get it aligned today and it's all better so nothing was bent or broken.

    Weird thing is I've wheeled much much harder and not messed up the alignment like that so I'm wondering what caused it to come out of alignment so badly.
    Just a few weeks ago I pulled the cam bolts and antiseized them (I've since learned that I did virtually nothing as it's the sleeves that seize) then had it aligned.
    So I'm thinking that either the antiseize made the cams easier to knock out of adjustment or that the previous alignment left the bolts too loose.
    I intend to crawl under there and tighten things up really well.
    What all should I tighten? I figure all the cam bolts and the lock nuts on the tie rods but that's all I know about. Are there any other adjustments?

    TL;DR
    HEY JACE OR BRIAN. WHAT ALL SHOULD I TIGHTEN TO MAKE SURE MY ALIGNMENT STAYS PUT?
