    Waaaaaaaasssssup?!?

    Had a video based interview back at 8am PDT, man I could tell those west coasters are not quite awake until we got 20+ minutes into the interview, thankfully the candidate is based here on the east coast.

    Also pretty sure the left coasters are still working at their homes!
    Ahhh I see you are Ski Bum Greg...I thought about that towards the end of college, especially with half a dozen close friends that moved out there!

    Do the resorts run spring/summer "trails" for mountain bike and mountain boarding endeavors?!?!

    Firestone would be hard pressed to do this alignment correctly. There's a lot of moving parts. Literally.

    2014 Wrangler JKU

    And the estimate is..........

    $130! I paid that for an alignment on the Silverado! And that's essentially a two wheel alignment.

    Yes, I told this joint exactly what was going on. So I think I know where I'll be going.

    They've been ordered for about two weeks. Hopefully they'll ship soon. After Operation Ball Joint 2 this weekend it's all I'm waiting on.

    I feel your pain, as far as the pricing. I went with the lifetime, but after major mods requiring completely setting the high caster numbers, I go a spring and alignment shop (mostly dump and 18 wheeler), those guys will listen when you say, CASTER as close to 5*, bring toe and camber into the normal "green" range. The last time I did it (post suspension upgrade) it was just over $100.

    Now I'll just schedule a firestone appointment to reign in camber and toe...I will walk over to the alignment bay and chat with the Tech and reiterate I want caster at 5* and only adjust camber and toe. They seem to really enjoy that, since it saves them wasted time and allows them to get the full alignment billing hour(s) and move to the next job within 20 or 30 minutes of pulling mine!
