Thanks for the info...that was like an arm and a leg...ouch..I need to find somewhere cheaper. I used to get hoop up but that was when I was still up in the bay area. $70 four wheels alignment and I get 1 full yr warranty, I can have it re checked anytime I wanted within that one year period. I miss that

ok, fine i'll spill it. I did gave him a bj HAHAHAHAHA just playing.




seriously, I actually have those squeaking front suspension problems on my car, so I took the car in. They need to replace the thrust arms and the parts were on back order and are still on order for about 2 weeks now, so during this period I had the RENNTech springs installed. I was planning to install the springs after the squeaking has been fixed, but I got it installed early because the SA told me that after they replace the thrust arms, they will need to redo the alignment on my car.

Therefore, I now have my car lowered and don't have to worry about alignment PLUS, the squeaking sound will be fixed. The SA will call me when the parts get here.

so, if you want free alignment after you lower the car, just hope your car have those squeaking problems.

Wheelworks. I know the manager there. But eventho, normally is about $100-$120 for alignment and you get one full yr to re align as many times as you wanted. I am not sure if they changed the rules yet, but give it a shot.

They only have Wheelworks up in the bay area. You are lucky you still up in the bay, do a search you should be able to find them around the bay.
