Alignment shop
-
This question is more for the people with a bunch of suspension mods. This spring I'll be finished with my suspension. I am wondering if any of you have any experience with a shop? I will have alot of adjustable pieces that were not adjustable before, and I want it to be done right.
The front doesn't really consern me at the moment, should be pretty basic(just upgraded stuff with more adjustability/stronger parts), but the rear is Going from pretty much no adjustablity to everything being fully adjustable. Pretty much any place that sells them suggests that they be setup by a race alignment shop.
Note: Adjustment of the rear traction rods together with the rear tie rods (Hicas models) or rear toe arm can also alter the geometry between the two two arms to reduce rear bump-steer. This should be setup by a race alignment shop.

I took my old hatch into a shop on washington here in GF, i can't remember which one it was but they did my alignment with camber adjustment and all for like $45. It seemed to drive great..... i will get the name next time i drive by it.

Sportscar Engineering in Moorhead has an alignment shop he recommends, but I didn't deal with the alignment shop directly.
He's an old school VW racer so I don't think he'd suggest anyone bad. They did my Audi and I have no complaints, but I didn't ask for anything out of the ordinary.
As a point in comparison, the tire place next to Kennedy Transmission on 13th Ave S is NOT where you should take your car. I had to show the damn tech how to adjust the camber on my audi.. he insisted it was non adjustable even after i showed him which nuts to loosen.

You're talking about Tires Plus, don't deal with them (at least that shop, I have no problems with the one in Fergus Falls, Wes is a good guy) The one on 13th doesnt know shit and they're douchebags, trust me I worked there and told them to get fucked.
