    Don't f's do it. I'm just now getting to sit down lol. Jk it's really and honestly not that hard. I did it in a day with one helper. Well two but he just grabbed tools for the most part and applied ky emblem to the spindles. I can tell you this if you sit in an office all day and and like warm weather don't do it today. I'm so sore across the shoulders it ridiculous. But I am also 6'6" and all that bending over sucks

    Took 4 alignment shops to finally find out that could do the alignment. At firestone went ahead and got the lifetime alignment for 139.99 + tax

    F*** Firestone lol. Right after Chris helped me do my install, I noticed we forgot to completely tighten a couple lug nuts on one of my tires (all the rest were fine, no idea how that happened), luckily I live like 2 minutes from Chris lol, so the next morning I limp over to Firestone for an alignment, I specifically point out that one of my tires is bouncing around because of loose lug nuts (my dumbass at the time didn't have a 19MM socket, after 2 went missing after 2 subsequent dealer visits) So they said, Ok, we'll do the alignment, call me back like 4 hours later saying its ready, but they couldn't get the alignment perfect, Chris explained it to me, because of to much (insert alignment thing here) from the Spindles and TC UCA's, So I say, ok whatever, as long as I can drive it, I walk out to my truck thinking I'm good to go, and unscrew my lug nuts off the same tire with my hand. So I walk back in and explain WTF is going on, and they practically ignore me until I just wander out into the garage and ask the Service manager (or W/E) for the guy that worked on my truck, and the guy won't help me either, so finally I have to beg them for a torque wrench just to tighten my own lug nuts since they tell me to just hand over the keys and they'll 'Get around to it'. Oh, and the guy who did the work insisted he didn't know he had to tighten the lug nuts...up until I whip out the service order that specifically states "check lug nuts". SO needless to say, I didn't learn from that...

    ...because like 4 months later I go in for another alignment, stating I want to buy the lifetime alignment. They make me wait around for a good 45 minutes before telling me they won't sell me the lifetime but they'll try to just do an alignment at a discount. So I go wander around the mall for 2-3 hours ( I think I went and saw a movie), come back and they're like "oh shit, forgot to call you, the Tech took one look at your truck and refused to work on it, and our Master Tech is gone for the day". I argued for maybe 5 minutes that I'd literally got my last alignment there, but they 'didn't believe me' and still wouldn't do it, so I went and got my last alignment sheet from them and they just said it was up to the tech...

    So yea, rant over, but damnit that pissed me off lol.

    Firestone got me right in and right out. Sounds like you went to a shitty one. Sorry man. But They did the alignment and Brought me out to the truck to watch. The whole I was on TW looking for specs incase they didn't get it like it should be. They got the toe at 0 the camber at 0 and caster was like 2.3 I think or maybe 0.23. Truck it at a friends house getting mocked up for new sliders since I don't want to put the step bars back on. He's been dabbling in metal welding and bending so I told him he could use it for mock up but not allowed to weld anything to it.
