    Even if I am going to get it aligned tomorrow? Is it true they will charge extra?

    Your standard tech won’t disassemble the suspension to get things right. They will make adjustments to try to get it in spec and then after several hours of trying will give up and give you their best attempt.

    If you go to an off road shop that is familiar with a Tacoma setup they may do more, but you will also pay more.

    Your best bet is to make it look as factory as possible so they don’t refuse right away. I’ve been to Firestone locations that won’t touch my truck and others that do a great job and one that did an awful job.

    Since all those lobes do is move the arms in and out, you should be able to rotate it to the upper side with the opposite tick mark is approx the same location on the tab at the top.
    Hopefully this shoddy illustration makes sense o_O

    Rotate up to align the red marks, which should roughly be the equivalent to the green marks in the current location

    I can’t believe this happened brought my truck to Firestone
    1 because my other shop is closed and two Firestone has lifetime alignment which I will use again (or not)
    They literally smashed flat my cam gussets/tabs14E9D1A7-DA06-481B-A1D6-5FF57EBA6A9E.jpg

    That’s an expensive fix if you are paying a shop. I’d make them pay the dealer estimate for repair and then find someone good to weld in either the Total Chaos Cam tab gussets or Marlin LCA Brace.
