You should be able to drive it home even if an alignment isn't possible right away; but there should be places open in Oklahoma City on Sunday that could do an alignment. Mark probably knows who's recommended in that area.

There's a Firestone on 29th Street, about three miles away. They are open Sunday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

One of the forum members is the manager at a Firestone in Norman. And, they do lots of four wheel vehicle alignments. That's where I'd take mine, but it's 60 miles (RT) the wrong direction for BA.

If somebody was looking for a winch, and somebody was to ask a loaded question, like:

What winch offers the best bang for your buck?
What type of answers would one receive?

You might get something along the lines of "what is the range of the buck"?

That said, I do like the Superwinch LP10000 I bought off of Amazon for around $450 shipped. They now go for around $400 shipped. But the Recon that Chris (snowbilt) bought for around $450 also got him a synthetic rope and wired/wireless remote (the Superwinch LP10000 comes with wire rope and wired remote). Just depends on the budget you have allocated and just what features you're looking for. I know Jerry is quite happy with his Smittybilt XRC as well. And then there was someone in your neck of the woods selling a Ramsey Patriot for quite a price

probably a smart ass answer or the typical one for most people here is "warn" until the person asking the question looks at the price and sees they can not afford it. and then there is the one guy that says " do a search" and look for yourself and/or pastes a FAQ that every noob should read before asking a question....my and
