Does anyone know how to align there trucks with BFG tires without scratching the stock wheel?


I went to get second alignment...the first one scratched my wheels and the shop today would not do it in fear they would scratch it even more. This kind of sucks!

Yea, the place that did my alignment put a couple of dings in the rims too. I guess they assume no one takes care of a vehicle...

If they take their time, they should not scratch the wheels. I have aligned mine at least 4 times now, and not a scratch anywhere.

Do you do your own alignments Amric?

Yes. I rarely trust anyone else to work on my truck. Even to the point of doing my own warranty work.

I watched the first guy do the work.....he was taking his time, but the machine still left marks. It was probably a old set up....but never the less owners like us that take pride in there rides want the work to be done right. Lucky for you, the resorces are at your finger tips. But for the rest of us.....our trucks are in the hands of techs who most of the time do not care.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Cry.gif
