Sorry to hear about all your troubles EB... I hate sending my stuff off to anyone period. when I have to I always have a sick feeling in my stomach when I think of what they're doing to it. that is why my truck is still parked in the garage waiting for me to get the pitman arm off. good thing I have a "little truck" to back it up. too bad it wasnt a diesel though [&:]

 

Well my trip to work this morning was good and I got it up to 80mph and there doesn't seem to be any drive line vibration. The truck is a little louder now, I guess because thats just how it goes with lifted trucks?
The tires are the same 35" Pro Comp Xtreme's but they are a little fatter @ 13.5" instead of the 12.5" that I had on before. They seem to be a little on the bouncey side.
When they re-balanced the tires yesterday there was one wheel that took 9 oz's of wieght to balance it and all the others took no less than 5 oz of lead to balance them. Is this normal for a 35" x 13.5' x 18" tire/wheel ?? Seems like a lot of wieght to me.

First off, if some idiot messed up my truck like that I would have nicely demanded at least a partial refund for my time lost. Second, you PAID for someone to do a certain job to your truck, if the control arms still are not right take it back and make them fix it the way it is supposed to be. The truck shouldnt be set up like they think it should be or even the way you think it should be but it should be exactly as stated in the installation instructions. I get so mad when I read things like this.

 

Thanks for the advice and that will be something I will look into. I do think they have the alignment off though. Seems to want to progressivly tuck and turn like the outer wheel tucking in a little Increasing the turn without moveing the steering wheel, if that made any sense?

 

I wouldn't let them touch ur truck again. if they ****ed up three times now it seems tell them you want money back and it done somewhere else. I woudln't trust them at all with that truck.

 

well dude, i gotta rub it in...a friend of mine that works for chrysler installed my 5" lift and did all the alignments and greased it and EVERYTHING including weld me up a bracket for my ebrake cable all for 250$ i even gave him 300. sorry bro had to do it

 

Here's a reminder of that sick feeling Steve, although i seem to remember this actually being a pleasant experience for you.

Buzzy, I've gotta agree, if the truck still isn't right, either have them do it this saturday when you can be there, or ask for a refund. This situation has quickly escallated to sad.

Here ya go Steve ...
