Wheel Alignment questions

So I went to my local town fair, ordered my hankook dynapro rf10s
They will be in tomoro.

Long story short they wacked me with a fee for 4 wheels alightment ( vs front only which is much cheaper )

My queston is , does the rear on the 3rd gen have alignment adjustments ?

Or is it front only. I didnt want to arguee with the sales guys because I wasnt 100% sure. But I thought only the front has adjustments .

Can anyone confirm it for me .

Did my alignment about 3 weeks ago after my lift. Fronts were only aligned. I think you've been duped...

I knew it :AK47:


But in the end I guess I still got a good deal .

$761 out the door w/tax for 4 255/70/17 hankook dynapro rf10s installed, balanced with alignment seemed ok still.

The 4 wheel alignment can show you if the rear is out of alignment. There is no adjustment as in the front but can show you if you may have other issues going on. For example you did a lift and your panhard bar is now pulling the rear end to one side...

I had the same "4 wheel alignment" done at Town Faire. The difference between the "4wheel" and the front only is that the front only just aligns the fronts with each other. The "4 wheel" that you pay for determines the thrust vector of the rear axle and aligns the front wheel to it. You really do need to have the front aligned to the rear or you can get tire wear, it just sucks that they don't include that in the deal. See if you can get them to include it.

Also, make sure they give you free road hazard insurance, I think they jipped me on that (it's shown on my reciept as not selected), though I will go back and argue if I have any problems, because the guy told me on the phone that I was getting road hazard insurance.

Yes Im wondering this myself, I have a 2" lift in the rear 1.5" lift in the front

Is there anyway of adjusting the panhead bar ? Or do I have to purchase a adjustable one .


Its just messed up how town fair words it just to charge us extra (4wheel alignment vs front end alignment ) when all they are realy aligning is the front end . Like nelson and recon said you need to front end aligned to the rear for a proper alignment ! so the wack us for the 4wheel aligment price anyways !
