If this was the same shop that did your wheelbearings I'd stay away from them.
I've worked in shops that didn't do alignments but we always did what @OLDSKOOLERnWV mentioned. Don't need expensive alignment tools to set toe, just some common sense and a tape measure.little cat 500, Cattleman84, D.Tibbitt and 1 other person Thank this. -
Does not matter if they offer/do alignment or not. They should have: 1) sent the truck out to have it aligned before giving it back to you 2) referred you to a place or 2 that does alignments 3) informed you that an alignment needed to be done 4) at least got it close using the method Oldskooler and AModel suggest and then informed you they recommended it be put on a machine.Siinman, Cattleman84 and D.Tibbitt Thank this.

So did that happen in 500 mi or 30? either way that’s a terrible job. I would think they would be so far out of whack you could see it but can’t really pick anything up in the picture. Could you smell burnt/hot rubber while you were driving

This last pic is taken this morning,its a brand new set i put at ta 30 miles away
