Front End Alignment Recs (3 Viewers)

Swapped out tie rod end, then calling for an alignment appointment, was probably the wrong order. First available is 8/15 at 4WP, anyone have a rec for somebody else that they have used. North preferred. Got it close yesterday, but need a laser...

Jerry's alignments in Pflugerville is a small business that has been great to work with for three or four of my alignments by this point. Unless things have changed it's first come first served..

I recently used Jerry’s in Pflugerville as well on my Tacoma after I changed out the control arms and lifted it. They did a great job, and I believe it was less than $100.

I will definitely use them again

I had to make an appointment cause they were booked a few in advance

Thanks, guys, I'll give them a call!

The one thing I’d say.. consider looking up the LCA pivot bolt torque spec and ask them to double check it.

They were surprised how high the number is on my 200 (probably the same for a Tundra). Many alignment shops don’t hit the spec which results in the alignment drifting after big bumps.

The alignment has always been pretty good, but when rotating the tires a month or so ago, I noticed the seal on the tie rod end had blown out. The pic is after I added some grease, so I could run down a new part, (the overflow reminds me of the Rolling Stone tongue...). It's a ProComp front end, and ProComp is in kind of a weird state right now, but I was able to pick up a pair of new ones from 4WP. As I mentioned, I should have gotten an appointment lined up with them before changing out the old one, but I did manage to get on the calendar at Jerry's for this Thursday. Before I go, I'm going install the other new one on the driver's side, and get the string out again.

The torque spec on the LCA is around 215, at least stock Toyota, but not sure if Jerry will need to mess with that. Again, thanks for the rec!
