Well yesterday I took my truck in to get it aligned and they refused and said my truck was a hazard and wouldnt do it. I asked them what they ment and they said my ball joints, tie rods, wheel bearings, steering box was bad plus I have a cracked frame. Too bad I just replaced all of that crap a month ago to get it ready for an alignment. Now I went to the top of the chain and I think a few people are going to get fired and I might get a free alignment
 
is it lifted or anything? a lot of cheap places don't even like to work on ttb let alone lifted ttb. i take mine to a professional 4x4 shop. and whether all that stuff was bad or not, they still should have done the allignment but just let you know about it

congrats on the possible free alignment

If the stuff is bad you can't align it, because with everything flopping around it will change constantly going down the road.

If everything is new they are trying to seperate you from your money by saying it is shot.
 
yes it is lifted, I really wouldnt have cared if they told me they didnt want to do it its just the fact that they tried telling me it was all bad. After talking to the manager they are sending me to another place to get it reinspected for free. The first time they wanted 20 dollars to tell me it was all shot, I just told them to send there technitions back to school and to get bent and then I left. Now my new tires are starting to wear so im going to ave to take it somewhere else.
 
yeah. zoleman tire ****ing charged me 25 buck to look at it for 5 mins. they said everything up front was bad. but thats when i started to really work on my truck and had to fix things
 
where at in fla do you live. I know a couple of shops up here tried to tell me all my front end was shot. But it wasn't.
 
I live in deltona. Its right next to daytona beach. Every tire place I go tries to screw me over. Last time they put my steering wheel on upside down and had like 3 turns to the right and like five or six to the left. people got fired over that mistake that I even warned them about beforehand. Im going to the 4x4 specialists today
 
you have no idea how happy I was to get out of Deltona.....lived there from '01 to '05....

goin through the 3 hurricanes in '04 convinced me to move back up north......:D

good luck with the alignment.....

ground alignments arnt hard and the best part u dont have to waste your money at the shop cuz you know your gonna hit a rock or somethin and throw the alignment off. takes time but but costs you nothing and you can adjust it anytime
 
Yea deltona sucks thats why im joining the air force soon. I got it to go straight and all but I cant get the camber right thats the whole reason that I need one. Im now regreating getting scrapping our hunter alignment machine that we had. Had to make room for our old chryslers in the garage and that was the first to go.
 
ughh i know i need all new balljoints and body mount where radiator is both sides. that mount is rusted off and radiator basically wiggles on highway and with my crappy balljoints, off alignment, my truck has some awesome shaking.
