Seattle Area Maintenance and Meet

[Kurtis]

Before I die I will get some 4Runners to show up to one of these runs.

BTW there's a road off to the left of NF-62 that will take you a ways up the mountain. There is a pretty neat water fall up there.

Thought I would say "Hello" since I'm new to the forum, new to 4runners and live in Seattle.
We picked up a stock 2008 Limited V8 a few weeks ago and I'm excited to get out on some trails this summer, explore the area some more. I'm looking at a few upgrades/mods in the near future with the suspension likely being at the top of the list and tires. Great information on the site!
Thanks

Welcome!

WA people, where do you all go for your alignment for your lifted 4runners that know what they are doing. These Firestone guys by my house are a joke. Thanks in advance

I took mine in to my local Sears Auto and they did a good job.

Never would of thought they do alignment. Did you do front and rear OR just the fronts

Only need an alignment on the front.

Which Firestone? I go to the one in Bellevue and they do a good job... One guy did complain when I went twice in 2 weeks, but I can kinda understand that.

Guy said (thinking he was out of my hearing range), "How many times are we going to do this for him?"

I replied from my seat in the waiting area, "As many times as I bring it in, since that's what I paid for."

Then I saw him getting scolded out in the garage.

But yeah, they do a good job. One of the workers is a sour old man. There's a younger dude that drives a monster older Ford. He knows his stuff.

I was thinking of just taking it to my local Toyota. Did they do a good job?

I would imagine that most of the techs at the dealerships know their stuff. I'm down in spanaway/graham so I've never been to any of the shops up north. A buddy of mine went to Toyota of puyallup iirc and they took care of him. Where exactly are you? What Firestone did you go to? I've had good luck with the Firestone in Lakewood in the past.

 

[busmup808]

I'm in Graham off 224th. Its by Fred Meyers off hwy7. Damn your close to me.

TOK is Toyota of Kirkland. One of the best dealerships around.

I had the Lakewood guys do mine when I first lifted it and they didn't do a very good job. I had to take it to the guys on base a couple days later to fix it.

Yeah I guess it's kinda "hit or miss" anywhere you go.

Would like to check your rig out when you got free time. If its ok.
