you gotta know what you're getting for your $180.
it's steep for a front only - camber/caster/toe, maybe bumpsteer. it's reasonable for a 4-wheel alignment by someone who knows the cars (and how *not* to strip the trailing arm front link retaining bolts). at that, you'll probably still need your own shims. it's downright cheap for a cornerbalance and 4-wheel alignment. changing your rear damper type to or from gas-charged dampers will probably change that cornerbalance, as will changing springs. changing to the same kind of rear damper won't affect cornerweights. |
