I have an NTB 3 year plan. It's great but some of their locations have out of adjustment laser racks. I think I've gotten around 20 alignments in 2 years, all under a single price of 160.
How is 7 degrees a big jump in castor from stock? Stock is like 6.5. I run 8.2 and it feels great.
to the OP:
Anyways, there is no need to take the car anywhere special for an alignment unless you want a dynamic alignment done. NTB and firestone and so-on will adjust static settings, but they have no mechanism for adjusting dynamic toe in (IE front and rear bumpsteer) so make sure to set the rear traction rods to equivalent lengths before going in.
Just tell the guy what specs you want, and tell him how the aftermarket control arms work, making sure to mention the reverse threaded part, and making sure they don't set the arms so that the pillowball is binding. Usually alignment techs are happy to work on my car because they prefer aftermarket links to the hard-to-set eccentric bolts. Just be friendly, and stay in the shop while they work on the car to explain how all the links work.
