Okay Autozone did not have the KYB's that I desired and they wanted 120.00 for Gabriels! I hopped down to Speedway and pick up a total strut (all included) for 85.00. I didn't have time to order cause its being replaced tomorrow morning. Any opinions on Moog? As long as it works, I don't care. But overall for the price I paid, are they pretty sturdy?
 


Alright, thanks! So after it is put on tomorrow, I have to take it for alignment. What is decent price for a four-wheel. I don't feel like getting jacked.
 
Alignment cost varies by area.

According to Firestone's website it is $80 for a one time alignment, $170 for lifetime.
 
i used firestone too, the 80 dollar alignment is warrantied for 6 months, so you can take it back to be checked or realigned if you changed anther part for free with in 6 months.

the life time is you can only go and have it checked every 5 or 6,000 miles.
 


Firestone sounds good. I will have to see if there is any by my house. I don't want to drive it more than a couple of miles until after the alignment, even with the suspension all good now. Front suspension is fully fixed from the wreck, now rear. New fender is ordered.
 
Yeah, I don't know if I want to go to Firestone. It is only five miles, but I have to travel all of the way through Speedway. I don't know how off it will be after struts. I mean will the wheel be sideways to drive straight?
 
a short drive around the block will tell how bad its out. 5 miles aint far.

if the wheel is like way off, you can play with the tie rod and turn it in or out and get it fairly close. you break the lock nut free, then turn the inner tie rod. this will move the wheel in, or out.
 


they do, 4 wheel computer alignment. they give you a print out of where it was and where they adjusted it to and it shows the specs its should be with in as well.
 
ive had 3 alignments done so far, the last one was from firestone, the rest were crap. ill be going back if need be. :th_thumbsup-wink::th_thumbsup-wink:
 


This is the Moog. Sorry bout my schoolwork taking half the coffee table. It looks much nicer than the Gabriels.
