Just FYI guys. The maintenance guy at the dealership told me the alignments are covered under the factory warranty until 12,000 miles. So if it's not too obvious that you've done something get that sucker done for FREE!

I might just get it done when it gets closer to 12,000 miles just so I won't have to pay for it later.

They won't do it unless the truck is noticeably pulling, or vibrating, or something that would actually warrant an alignment. Plus I personally would not feel right doing that.

Well I would feel good about it. We get screwed enough with these things, I don't think a free alignment would hurt anyone. Definitely not me!

I think there was some confusion to my question. I am for sure going to get it aligned but I was not sure if it would have been a waste of money to do it right after the leveling kit install just to have to do it again when i get 33's but Ryan answered the question stating tires and wheels don't matter, so I'm just going to do it right after the install and be done with it.

I was really hoping i would get the kit before the weekend considering Rough Country has "same day shipping" plastered all over their site, but when i called they said it's not going to be shipped out till Monday which sucks because i ordered it Tuesday. Oh well I'll save a little more gas for one last week.

They may be low or out of them. Mine did ship out right away and I got it fairly quick.

Did you get the 2.5F .75R kit from them?
