Ya all it takes is one dumb ass to say I think i can. It's not that hard to align a car at the cost they charge.

When we do alignments they tell us that they want a print out stapled to the repair order showing all the % of adjustments and whats in and whats out.

The equipment they use (Hunter) did not tell the tech to adjust the rear lower control arm... I literally got under there myself and did it for him because he didn't know how. And this is why I don't normally go to the dealership.

antiburn, thanks for being honest, and rooz dude do the inspection yourself. Its easy as hell if you have the bentley manuals, they explain everything. And both of them are doable by enthusiasts... just need a few tools.

PS, I was going to get the dealership do it till I found out they will charge 300 bucks for checking lights, seatbelts, etc, etc.. they also check the under the car which is important (but bentley guides you). so save the money or spend it on mods/parts instead of labor.

Yeah, rooz linked this in another thread, and I thought it was active, so I replied to it when he did the same for mine...
