Centerlink was free haha but run about 400 I believe and tierods are just under 300 I think. I've had this laying around since the summer already and haven't checked on prices lately. It's a good upgrade to any truck's frontend. Stock is pretty weak

I agree but if the truck gets driven and you are in a area with snow/salt the position ajusters seize up quickly. Mine only worked for 1 winter and are now stuck on #3 setting permanetly:(

they are lifetime warrantied, just need the receipt

you need to get down there & turn the knobs every couple weeks

I have been working with Alligator performance (Chad) on this.. He sent me the warranty form but unfortunetly I dont have the reciept:eek: I need to give them (Alligator) a ring and see if they have a record of the transaction from last year and can send me some sort of receipt?:confused: Either way its not to big of a deal, worst case scenario I will buy new rears and take proactive measures to keep them free'd up this time around..;)

a little off topic, but what size are the wheels and any idea how much they weigh alone?
