      Agreed. You could probably drive that thing under my car. Looks really good!

          I wish I had a great recommendation for you but my last conversation with an alignment shop went something like this:

          me: "Do you have time to get my car in for a 2-wheel alignment today?"

          shop: "Oh sure!, not a problem, our 4-wheel alignment runs $190"

          me: "The only component on my car with any adjustability is the front toe. I just replaced my steering rack and just need the toe set again"

          shop: " what kind of car?"

          (here we go)

          me: "91 BMW 325i "

          shop: "Oh yeah, we cant do an alignment on those, we dont have the special BMW tool for that one, but theres a shop in Waukesha that does"

          me:"Ha! well why dont I bring you my "special bmw tool" (rubber handled crescent wrench) so you can do it"

          shop:" Sir, you dont understand, it requires a special bmw tool"

          ........

          I ended up doing it myself. Here in the midwest I get the feeling that most parts stores and shops that ask me what kind of car I have would end up asking me "what kind of Chevy is that?"

                  Pillars auto in hales corners has a flush alignment rack. I know Kerry had his car done there and he's lower than any of you.

                      I dunno.. I'm pretty damn low. And I'm going even Lower. But flush racks are flush. You could be dragging, and youd get on.

                        Getting on the rack is one thing, but do these places know what they are doing? Will they align it how I want, even if it's different from 'Whats in the book'?

                          Yeah, they know what they're doing. You could try Big Bear Tire in Oconomowoc too. They do lots of race car setup.

                                          I always forget if Big Bear does alignments. they are one of the few places I will trust to touch my wheels.
