Well got the camber bolts installed. Took it to Firestone and ran into a problem. With the rim/tire combination I now have I need a alignment rack With sensors that fit over the tire and not clamp to the rim. These tires have rim guards and the rims have no outer lip. They also can't slip the clamps in between the rim and tire because rof the stiffness of the load range e tire.
Looking for a shop in the Syracuse area that has this other type of rack. Will never do this combo again.....

Well after a few days of calling around I think I have found a shop that may be able to do it.
Appointment is on Tuesday, it's over and hour away but hopefully they can solve this dilemma.

Yet another turn down.. Still not aligned. Borrowing a friends set of rims and tires off a 2007 to get it aligned at Firestone tomorrow.

I got bored at lunch today, so i worked on the new lock pawl for my tool box. The box didn't come with a key (was given to me so i never cared). Found a cabinet lock at Home Depot for $2.99, we will see how it survives through the winters here.Had to cut down one of the "arms" for the locking mechanism to make it work, as the one i drilled out off the old pawl was off centered.

Think that will hold up?

Not real sure, really the only thing different between it and the old one was a small little tin flap that covers the key hole when the key isn't in there. Figured it may be something to try for cheap.

Well not much has happened with the truck over the last few months. I am still having some alignment issues which will hopefully be resolved on November 10th. Letting my gf drive the truck until I finish class in December. $500 a month fuel bills are crazy on part time pay. Next modification will be rain guards, as I’m driving her Escape which has them makes me want to get myself some.

I still need to get my speakers installed that are sitting in the basement.

Drove the truck today, fresh snowfall. Couldn't find the Snow Pic Thread.
