    My husband has been telling me to "check and see if anything came loose" after the first time at the dunes. I never checked. I am not sure I would have caught that but I will look for it now.

    Noted. My husbo likes Firestone complete care places because of the unlimited lifetime alignments per car he can get.

    check the sheet and look at the thrust angles. If its out a considerable amount like a full degree then you have a problem.

    i had the same issue. ubolts came loose enough for my whole pack to shift forward. my center pin looked like a stair case when i finally got it out

    I’m having the same problem. Thrust angle is out 0.90. No accident reports nor visual evidence of an accident, but I do have new springs as of a few thousand miles ago. Taking vehicle to the shop on Weds to have someone who knows more than shade tree me to have a look at it.

    It's still not a reason to go there. Firestone looks at those free alignment deals as a reason to look for stuff that isn't broken.

    Here’s the expert report. Lol .52 off. The lines at the bottom are supposed to show how the axel is off. Picking it up now haven’t checked anything yet.

    Just did a a quick glance and couldn’t find anything obvious. Husbo will drop the springs this week. I’m frustrated. I hate it when I can’t fix my stuff.
