I bet Matt a box full of shiny nickels that he was a dreamer a while back. Lets see if makes with the shots.

My guess is, he may actually have an H2 but given his comprehension of the English language, the directions that came with his digital camera may present all sorts of trouble.

We'll see. . .

Matt fail English? Thats Unpossible!

Okay, the service guy at the dealer called and said my truck is ready. In a handful of things they did, they replaced the idler arm. I asked if they did an alignment and he said "Yeah, we adjusted the toe".

When you crank the torsion bars, is it the toe that goes out? Does the toe adjustment fix whatever goes out of alignment when cranking the torsion bars? Or should they have done a full alignment?

PARAGON 01-05-2006 04:03 PM

Camber is something else that changes if you adjusted the torsion bars. If they didn't do a full alignment, I would get one.

Dan 01-05-2006 04:10 PM

Thanks guys. I told the service writer when I brought it in that if they didn't replace anything on the front end and do an alignment, I still needed one anyway.

I'll have to take a look at the paperwork when I get there. I have a bad feeling that they didn't do what I wanted....

Mattilda, the whole post was meant to be tongue-in-cheek.

Then you got yourself all worked up and typed out some convoluted nonsense on your keyboard with those thick greasy sausages you call fingers.

Perhaps you can put the $10 I "owe" you toward the fees for your GED completion. Just a thought.

monsterMatt ,fail? Englishe? Thats' Unpossible!

Dan 01-05-2006 04:50 PM

Just got off the phone with them. They did toe only. Now they're going to try to "squeeze it in" before I show up later today.

Also, if any of you have Techline, can you look up the TSB titled "100 RPM Drop" and post the info? I need to give that to them since they didn't fix that either.

Dan 01-06-2006 12:28 PM

All set now. I pestered them to do a full alignment and the caster & camber were off quite a bit. Bastids charged me $110 for it though.

They "updated the transmission program" which seems to have solved the 100rpm drop issue.

VTSTOMPER - sure enough, it was the wiring boots in the door jamb causing the leak. They RTV'ed them.

New DRLs, new mirrors (05's ), and new front diff seals. I should be OK for a while now.

PARAGON 01-06-2006 02:06 PM

Alignments are not covered under warranty.

Good thing you got the alignment, caster being off isn't good and wasn't caused by the torsion bar adjustments.

Dan 01-06-2006 03:19 PM

Yeah, I know! It was off fairly significantly too. If the center gap is the acceptable zone, the "^" is about how far off it was.

|__________|__|___^______|

Yeah, warranty doesn't cover alignment but I was hoping they'd throw it in since they replaced the idler. No biggie.

KenP 01-06-2006 04:05 PM

Now you're all set to bang it out of alignment in the Rock Swamp.

ROX 01-09-2006 01:41 AM

Wow. Monstermatt, if you got the wheels I think you got, pleaze post a pic!
I gotta see em!
