Hey, congratulations!

You realize if they had started the “Chipotle” chain right about now, it would be called “Sriracha.”

Barack rules his left-wing dominion
With lackeys ands fools as his minion
Both Psaki and Harf
Can cause me to barf
(But nobody asked my opinion)

It helps greatly to have the patient on a lift so you can just pull everything off comfortably -- Getting it all adjusted can be a bit of a hair pulling experience though

Messiah Obama has many a minion
All who carefully spout O’s opinion
Between Reggie and Michelle
Who will ever tell
To which of them he caves to their dominion?

i just take them down to an alignment shop after i get the basic install done. i mean you measure the fires, fore and aft, and get them there before you go, btu they handle the details. but i dont; have a life, so the best i can do is jack stands.
