    Yes they will. Just depends on the location. I've found 2-3 Firestones that will allign my truck and some deny me because of the modifications. I just had mine done last week by Santee without question. Even with 35s and all of the other garbage I have on the truck.

    Gotta be that, IB had no problem doing my Jeep with 2" lift. Hopefully they'll do the Taco in a few months when I get new tires. That or I want a refund for my lifetime alignment

    I got lifetime alignment in Oceanside, not a great alignment so I went to San Marcos and told them to put camber at zero and max caster. Came out with near 4 degrees caster and slightly negative camber

    The Firestone in IB on Palm and Emory gave the black truck one of the worst alignments it ever got in the 7 years of lifetime alignments. That's including 2 New Orleans locations, 2 Fort Worth locations, 2 San Diego locations and 1 in Hanford for probably 30 alignments. Would not recommend.
    I used the one on Plaza and Euclid several times, they weren't great but they could get it in spec and it didn't rub too bad. The one at Highland seemed a bit hesitant to touch it the one time I stopped but the wait was too long.

    Appreciate the warning, that's where I was going to go. I'll try Euclid and see how it turns out

    Yea that’s where I went and was happy with them. The guy I talked to first said they’ll put it on the rack and check it out prior to saying they could do it

    im going here today, just got new shoes saw some uneven wear on the inside of my drivers side front tire when I pulled the old wheels and tires off. Been trying all the Firestone’s around San Diego and they’re all
    Varying levels of awful so far.
