    If it's worse - take it back. You either have a shit install, or they sold you a part that didn't fix the problem - meaning, they didn't diagnose anything and just charged you for a part without cause to do so.

    OR.... lay on your back, loosen the bolts, and re-position. Save yourself the time.

    Eh, if I paid someone $125/hr to put 2 bolts in and they didn't do it right, I'd get my money back or have them fix it.

    My time isn't paid for out of pocket.

    take it back until it's right. sooner or later they'll get tired of dealing with you and fix it right.

    Took it in for the vibration and the front lca bushings are worn-out. Pick it up and they replaced the carrier bearing and rear leaf springs. I asked why they didn't fix the lca and replaced the rear springs. They said their technician could find anything wrong with the lca.

    I told them when I slow down and turn a 90° while pushing the brakes, there is a rubbing on the inner fender wall. Also showed the service advisor that when you look at the wheels turned straight, the distance from behind the wheel and fender is smaller on the driver side (2") compared to the passinger side (2 3/4").

    I have taken it to a front end alligment shop that dose all of my alligments and they put it on their rack and showed me they are loose. I would have them fix it because they would be cheaper but my truck still is under the extended warranty.

    So now I have another appointment next Tuesday to have it looked at again.
