I have an idea.
Lots of folks would like to do thier own alignment. How about setting-up a "Lending List" of equipment that can be used as needed. Something like: Have a permanent topic at the top of the page called "Alignment Tools". Here would be a list of things available and who had it last. If you need a tool or tools you would get it from that person, "notify" the "Alignment Tools" list that you now have the tool and your contact info. You would then use the tool and store it till the next person needs it. Maybe the club buys some tools others are donated. Anyway thats the basic idea. Of course some safegardes would have to be used so nothing goes missing. May have to be regional, etc. To start this, I will donate a set of Front Alignment Turnplates. What do you think??? Ken |

I recently bought corner-weight scales with the intent of "sharing" with the local people. I'm only about 12 miles from you, Ken. Bring your turntables down and check your corner weights and I'll align my car! Maybe we should organize a suspension/alignment day.

Come and get the turnplates if you need them. Ken |
