I didn't get one yet,. I'm using the wear too my advantage. NEW TIRES!! Sucks when you have to use household funds lol. (that aren't mine) Too the op. your supposed to measure from the top of each wheel well. As If you were measuring your tires just keep going up.

A full alignment is only 50 bucks?? At least around here anyways.... Can not see wearing out other parts just for 50 bucks and in the long run you will be replacing more than just tires.

the back is going to percept bigger due to different angles in the wheel well for the bed vs. front panel.

We are looking for the difference in ride height for the back vs front and looking won't tell you how much you are off, we need a measurement to figure out what to do
