    Where do you take your truck to get an alignment in Orange County?

    I take my truck to Firestone and get the lifetime alignment for $200. Great service, great value, but fair warning, if you have extremely modified suspension/heim steering they wonmt touch it

    Yes especially for lifetime on the vehicle! I’ve taken my truck there like 4-5 times now and hasn’t cost me anything more than time and gas. They haven’t even said anything about the fact I’ve clearly dragged my cam tabs over rocks several times, causing the misalignment :anonymous:

    Too many, but not enough....
    Go to liberty offroad in Norco. Its worth the drive and price. Ask for Paul. Literally best alignments I ever got.

    Wait a min? You don’t need an alignment? I thought that was the point of the thread!! Or was that a nice way of saying “that’s to far” :boink::bananadead:

    I got an alignment when I leveled the truck. The shop couldn't get negative camber. I plan on going max height on bilstien next month. I will need another alignment once that's done.

    It’s possible you’re extending your coilovers so much that you’ve maxed out your camber adjustment. I’ve see that happen before. If that’s happening you might need adjustable UCA’s or to lower the front a little bit

    also out of curiosity how did you level the truck?

    It was leveled with Bilstien 6112s at the 1.9 setting.
    Will be going with the 2.5 setting and adding a shim or 2. From my research I will also need +3 shackles and may need UCAs.
