Hey all...

Anyone recommend a good old-car friendly alignement shop either in the Thousand Oaks (CA) area or in Pasadena (CA)?

Thanks,

Sounds like its time to add a little more negative camber!

I used to use Matt's Brake and Alignment on TO Blvd. I wonder if they're still there though. Do not take your car to the Discount Tire Center on TO Blvd. They tried to sell my friend a rack because they couldn't get the tie rod loose on one side. Turns out they didn't realize that the rack is RH thread on one side and LH thread on the other. Morons...

If you don't have any adjustable bushings or camber plates then all they'll be able to do is set the front toe, which you can do yourself very easily. They can also shim caster about .5 degree so maybe you might get that benefit too if your car has a slight pull.

i knew this was coming one of these days...

basically there's no point in aligning it until i rebuild the rack - it's had it...

guess i know what i'll be up to over the weekend...

PS one of the guys at work with a couple old cars himself recommended California Tire off of Ventu on the frontage road along the freeway in Newbury Park... That's where I ended up going.

Why ask for recommendations when obviously you had already picked a place and had the work done?
