Sweet! Let me know how it goes. I'm nervous about dropping the cradle for fear of alignment issues.

disconnect the rack from the cradle and let it hang there. thats all i did and when i put it back together i didnt have to do an alignment.

i didn't, i went from late august to late december without 4th, gas mileage just sucks.

driving on freeway and beating my car like it owed me money.
