    They took good care of me; I don't think i'll go anywhere else for an alignment tbh. Compared to the competition, it's no contest. I've been to Mr. Tire and Firestone and had shitty experiences at both. I made sure to let them know before I left how happy I was with the work and their service

    Lol not really

    I haven't gotten an alignment since I moved away since I know no one will do as good a job. So I just adjust toe myself and call it good.

    Don’t have one. Don’t plan on having one. I don’t need another limited platform to speak on ;)

    They wouldn't know me because I do my own alignments.

    Amen Brother! To each his own. Funny story: My wife has had Facebook from way back. I was in a hunt club on the Eastern Shore and the President was always on Facebook even in the blind. I asked him “what are you doing all the time on your smartphone “? “I’m on Facebook” he says. I say “my wife has Facebook, I thought that was only for chicks “. F-you” he says! I tried it, got kicked off, even kicked out of the Boy Scouts. That’s just me. Again, to each his own, straight, gay, trans, bi, lesbian, questioning, @RobP62 , it’s all good! Ditch loves everyone!

    Well I think you are in another league. I installed gen 3 off road coil overs used on my gen 2 and it raised the front as if it was a leveling kit! It looks as if the tires are cambered in? Toed in? The outer edges of the tires are starting wear and I am experiencing a black dust on my rocker panels. Wonder if it is tire chafe dust? Don’t know. What do you think? Thanks, Ditch:bowdown::)

    It sounds like the tire wear is from not getting an alignment. How long ago did you lift it?

    Last tire experience was at NTW in Annapolis. Horrible experience! I told the manager “I am going to give you the review right in your face, not on line, you suck” to paraphrase without expletives.:mad::annoyed::)

    It definitely sounds like your lack of proper alignment is what's causing that premature tire wear. I'd rotate the tires front to back and go get an alignment asap before you ruin your tires.

    Thanks Randy! Tires cost too much to ruin without diligence. Thanks for your advice, Love, Ditch :hattip::bowdown::oldglory:

    I love FB, Marketplace that is. I just listed these old TRD tires & wheels that I've had sitting in my garage for years. Just minutes later I have a buyer driving up from Virginia tonight to buy'em.

    Good on you. I liked it too for market place. Looked at all the old 4-runners I dreamed of buying and fixing up. They quit me, not the other way around. Had a lot of fun for a while. I’m in it for the fun. Whether it’s at work or wherever. When you don’t like what I believe in and you can’t accept it, even though I can accept what you believe in, even though we don’t agree then I’m not having fun. “I’m not here for a long time, I’m here for a good time”! Deal:):thumbsup:
