I have a V6 and it did not look bad but still it was not fresh and clean.
It is really easy to change all the diff and transfer case fluids.

That's what happened to me when the dealer used an impact to put my lugs on. Broke 2 studs on my truck. Needless to say I got free service that day because I was livid.
You put em on by hand and use a torque wrench to make sure they aren't under or over tightened. Blasting them with an impact is creating potential issues for you later on

I learned today that the folks at my local Firestone are idiots. They basically didn't do an alignment. My Camber is still the same if not a little worse than when I brought it in. They told me "With your lift you are going to have to Do a subframe drop to ever hope of having a correct Alignment again."

This is comforting, i'm bringing my truck to firestone for an alignment today...
What is a "sub frame drop" ?
Call me anal but I do this too. Well, except when I'm feeling lazy and the impact wrench is RIGHT next to me... :wink2:

I'm pretty sure they made it up. You may be fine I think the people at mine are just idiots. They made my camber on front right .1 degree worse and now I have steering wheel shakes

I'm guessing it's when you drop the subframe to help get the original angles back? :shrug:
with the UCA's caster shouldn't be an issue. Don't know why camber would be an issue either. Isn't it done through the LCA bolt and TRE's? Someone educate me

They also told me that they completely fixed the caster and I was like umm I told you that you didn't have to mess with the caster because it was already in spec

So much for don't touch it if it isn't broke.
Find another shop to do your stuff I would say. I know, life time alignment is the way to go.

Assuming the people at my local firestone aren't morons, I'll be signing up today.

I got a Les Schwab I use, they have NO problem getting to spect. I seen all kinds of drifting and lifted rides come in and they will put to what you want for spects, even if not recommended, no warranty though.
Edit-You get what you pay for.

The best was that they told me to bring it back and spend another $85 after I get that drop kit that doesn't exist
