I was told that Firestone is having a special on their lifetime alignment, so I took the XJ down to get it done. I now have a lifetime alignment on both the KJ and XJ. This is a good time to get it done for those of you who have been putting it off. :wink: I assume this is nationwide "special", but I could be wrong...... You better call first. :lol: :lol:

Troy, I went back and looked at how much I paid for the alignment in Colorado Springs and I paid $149. So I guess the prices do vary..... :oops: The Firestone in Sheridan, Wyoming had it posted as $169 on their normal service board up on the wall. :?

Are you a mechanic? If so, I find that odd you have to pay.

I have a friend who owns a Tuffy Auto Center. Out of curiosity, I'm going to ask him if he makes his guys pay to do their own wheel alignments.

Regardless, I also know a guy who manages a branch of a large (midwest) wholesale auto parts company, and he often sells me parts at his cost. Example, I got a oem direct replacement radiator for $85.00 so I sort-of know what you mean when it comes to employee discounts. Matter of fact, I've decided to replace my Flowmaster OR 44 muffler with a Dynomax cat-back system. His cost (he'll sell to me) = $199.00 8)

Not to get too far off topic, but how do you like your Dynomax cat-back system? I thought about getting one for my XJ because it's not too loud.

I haven't replaced my exhaust system yet. I'n still running the Flowmaster 44 muffler (with a short down-turn) tail pipe. I do know some guys who have Dynomax systems on various vehicles (pick-up trucks) and they are very happy.
