New Bilsteins!

I got new bilsteins for my 98 4Runner this weekend. I could definitely tell the difference right off the bat. When braking normally, the nose didn't dive down like it used to. Corners were much more stable. Overall ride was smoother or maybe it was just the psychological aspect of the upgrade.

Strangely, I found myself purposely running over potholes and other irregularities in the pavement.

Thanks to Corey who recommended Scott over at Central 4WD in Kent.

Should I get an alignment done? Or should I wait until I get my new tires in a month?

Happy Easter!

I know how you feel, after I put the edelbrock IAS shocks in, I was so impressed with them that I had to put them to the test...

Yeah, it wouldn't make sense to do an alignment now and then again in a month. I don't have $$ to burn either.
