Wat a Dumb ass comment!!!

Im sure your car is slammed and prob ready for the junk yard!!

Im sure most any alignment shop around you can do anything you need them to. But you have to be specific with what you want done. With Stock RUCAS your not going to be able to adjust much.

... because lowered cars are, what, lame? Bad spelling and over-use of emoticons REALLY IS lame. Don't be a dousche.

To the OP, the suggestions here are valid: the Firestone unlimited/etc is nice because you can take it back whenever you want, but a performance shop (any race shop, or a Corvette/Porsche/Ferrari/etc shop) alignment is usually more accurate and you know they won't fuck stuff up (strip bolts/drop your car off the lift/etc).

All of my suspension arms and links are footwerks and they are all adjustable. The smaller places I have ask about lowered cars they either said they wouldn't do it or would do it for more money but wouldn't guarantee it. which I think is BS because having everything adjustable should make their jobs easier.

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.

wtf - my car is slammed, and i have adjustable everything... and not some ebay shit... And you hand the guy at the shop a lil white peice of paper with your #s on it and another peice of paper with ben franklins head on it - and he does what you want.

stock ruca's or not he can get it closer than he is - no they shouldnt have scales...

either way your post is crap. btw - ur neg rep does nothing.
