Well all done and I must say I am really glad that I got the lifetime alignment. They did an amazing job! I definitely recommend the Firestone in Fitchburg.

I also have the lifetime alignment with Firestone. When he finished and I left, I walked out and said, "Thanks! I'll see you in a couple weeks!" The guy was at a loss of words.

That's awesome! The guy that helped me was really cool, though when he asked if it was modified, he assumed I had a solid axle in the front with a customer drive train and etc... All in all, they made her run straight. Thats all that matters!

I am loving your build man, I wish my '99 could look like this. Quick question on the HID Hellas... Did you just follow the write-up/youtube video that was on here a few weeks ago? I have some Hella 500s that are just shells right now and would love to do an HID retrofit.

Kinda funny you should ask because I helped several people years ago to make some of the write ups we have now :P I use my own way to do it where I heat the shell and press out the back for room for the HID bulb. It is soooo much cleaner looking. If I pull them off when my winch goes in this weekend I'll take em apart and snap some pics and make a writeup. How's that sound lol?
I actually started out with 6 hella 500's converted to 55w VVME HID systems. That was on my 05 taco though.

So what RTT did you settle on? I feel bad for all you guys up north whose trucks rust so badly. Blows my mind to see parts rusted straight through!

Just part of living up here but I wouldnt trade it for anything lol.
As far as tents go since my GB was a flop its kind of up in the air... I may still end up with a tepui Autana, but of that fails I'll be getting a CVT my shatasa, or whatever it is lol.
