cheapest i found here in BFE is 100 down and 60 dollars per hour to align a car thats had its suspension altered in anyway. plus any parts u might need to shim the wheel 1 way or another ect... compared to 45 to align a car with stock suspension.


if u wana know how they do a alignment hit me up in pm or aol cos i took alignment in college (was needed for ASE certification) and i can explain it step for step

i can't stand taking the car to the dealer unless its something covered under warranty, never never ever take your car to the stealership unless you have to

why pay more money for lesser quality parts is what i always ask

Well, maintenance wise, I agree, But I figured maybe they could do something for that. Nevermind Ill go to NTB and hope they can do it.

If you put springs you will need cam bolts to adjust your camber and those are an easy install you can do your self and any certified allignment center will be able to align it TOw,caster and camber any q's just holla you can bye the cam bolts from a local autoparts store
