I'm getting new tires and I need an alignment badly. Anyone know a good place?

 

And i need a place to get my SFCs installed, because it's still not done and I'm not happy with any of the places I've gone too yet.

And frame checked...

 

I have a MIG welder and know how to install the SFCs, I made my own and put them on my car.

For frame checking isn't it just measuring certain points under the car and comparing against what the shop manual says? Was your car hit before?

Still looking for alignment shop...

 

Maybe if you get a chance, I can take a closer look at what you've done....

I want to be involved in the install too so... you got a lift? or access to one?

 

Give John Chilton at Grandview Tire a call. Tell him Chickenman sent you. 12 th and Commercial in Vancouver. He's astraight shooter and used to Autocross. Really good alignment guy. Good overall mechanical shop as well.

I didn't use a lift, I did it in my really messy garage. I put jackstands under the front a-arms and rear axle so the frame would be loaded the same as if it was sitting on the ground.

 

I wouldn't charge anything for labour as long as you do all the fun stuff (prepping the weld area, pulling interior, etc.) You'd only pay for the welding materials.

 

Thanks for the info Chickenman!! I used to autocross and now I'm looking at running the Silver State Classic. So his experience will definately help.

 

I know this post is a little old, but don't get your alignment done at Midas. They keep telling me that they can't do it because this or that needs to be replaced. And they f*@^ed up my brakes.
