Yuuuup!
let's see if I can get that alignment done before the 30th.
Wait, you mean your car can go FASTER? :bangwall:
lol idk about faster but I checked my alignment at home....the front end was all sorts of off... maybe I should make a thread about DIY alignments.

My opinion on DIY alignment is that if you don't have the heart (or mind) to do your homework and figure it out for yourself, you're probably not the person who should be trying to do their own alignment. :lol:

I'll shadow somebody while they try to figure things out, but I'm not likely to write up a full DIY on how to do it. Sometimes it does take a lot of patience to get things dialed in just right. (or, if you're like me, "just close enough")

It's gonna be on the cool side tomorrow, y'all! 48 in the morning, topping out in the mid 60's. Please don't show up dressed for summer and complain all day. :)

Except me, I get to complain for at least the first couple of hours.
