    $50 light bar came in today. 12 flood and 30 spot LEDs. That equals exactly 42 more lights and $50 less cash than I need at this point in my build.

    Me :D

    Oh and speaking of alignments, I was going to Wheel Works and doing their 1-yr ~$100 alignment. Did as many alignments in one year as I wanted. Renewed every year for like 4-5 years. This past time, they offered me a lifetime alignment. Don't know if it's new or if its just bc I go there so much. But it was only $170 and its right by my house. Can't complain

    I got the 1 year warranty from the wheel works by my place. I should ask them, but do they give you grief if you try and get realigned after suspension work or are they just for touch ups after wheeling?

    I'm 99% sure Firestone bought Wheel Works. I got the lifetime alignment at the firestone by my house for the same $170 and they also indicated that I could use any Wheel Works, Bridgestone or Firestone location. (IIRC)

    Ahh makes sense. Good thing this happened. Firestone declined to give me the lifetime alignment because of my lift. Then he notated it in the computer so I couldn't go to any other Firestone. DICK

    But will they redo the alignment if I make suspension changes and alter it under warranty?

    More shit then I ever planned on doing
    I'm really proud of myself for not loosing my shit this morning when the "service advisor" at Toyota tried to tell me I just need a new battery and the alternator in wife car is fine because the car wouldn't run with a bad alternator and it would be $160 to diagnose it. :luvya: :luvya::luvya::luvya:
    I politely told him that 12.1 volts at the alternator is not a good thing and asked to speak with a manager because I didn't have time for this shit.
    Just got a call that they are replacing the alternator under warranty.
