If you do it correctly sure everything will line up correctly. And why waste money when you can spend some time on just pulling it a little?

I have seen worse that has been pulled, thats not even bad compared to what some shops get. Im just confused how that would be rigging it, if you pull the propper way, then its done correctly.


And I didnt have a problem with your opinion I'm just giving him some advice and most likely saving him money.
