Your Raptor and It's Alignment

[Watson]

Fantastic write up. Much appreciated -

Do these specs look ok? This is what they set it to today after I performed the midperch. Truck rides great.

If you can get them to sell you a Lifetime Alignment, you've robbed a bank. Two of us in Denver have the Lifetime and we use it all the time.

Firestone hates me for sure! I have so many mods up front, it takes a very long time for the alignment. They complained and tried to void my Lifetime Alignment when a new manager took over. Told me my mods voided the agreement. I found a copy, read it five times, discovered I didn't break any rules, called the Regional GM of Firestone and he told me I was fine and the dealer would continue my contract forever! Mine my be hard, but - they have so many people who buy the Lifetime and use it three or four times at most. I consider that a fair deal...

Yep, for $179.99. I even had them take off the beauty rings so they don't scratch them and re-torque each bolt to 47.9lbs when they were done. Lugs at 150lbs. Had them locktite everything. So does that alignment look good? (It was after having them also do a mid-perch).

I took mine to Tire Plus today and they told me they couldn't do it because it was "lifted". Whatever. Drove down the street to Firestone and made an appointment for this Thursday. Even gave me a coupon for $20. $159. And he said I could bring it back as often as I wanted, very week even, and even after getting new tires.

Sold. I'm going with Firestone.

Yeah at this point my firestone is really starting to regret that lifetime alignment thing. In 2 tire rotations they are out about $2000 in repairs from crap they messed up. From now on they are going to only do alignments.

We worked the manager over a little with the Internet Special they were running. We both paid $159.99 for the lifetime alignment.

I now have RPG UCAs/LCAs and dual shocks. The shop that did my install did the alignment and they put out numbers Firestone has never been close to. But I know when I get back from TRR, I'll be going to Firestone for another alignment. They are going to **** their pants!

I think your numbers look good. They are all within factory tolerance.

My recent alignment with stage IV+ looks like pirate air specs with the exception of left and right amber which are at -1.0 and -1.0 left to right

Still in specs, but obviously not .3. So, faster tire wear, any other issues?

If say pretty good given the suspension upgrades.
