SPOT ON!....Dang I'm good.

Took my car in to the alignment shop today to get the rear end aligned. The guy was amazed. I hit the nail on the head! There were no adjustments needed. I got camber and toe-in spot on! A slight camber and a wee bit of toe-in (I forgot the numbers he gave me) and he checked it all with his super alignment machines. I was proud. And all done with nylon string and a sharp eye.

Bravo!

So who says you need a couple computers and lasers to get anything done these days.

I kinda think this is how these cars were built, nylon string and a sharp eye. And warm beer, Lucas style.

My alignment tools also, and work well. But I don't drink beer; tequila is my choice of liquid wobbly.

Peter I alway thought when I was younger it was ToKillya with a little lime and a salt lick.

If you weren't quite so far away, I'd drive over and have you do mine.

So, will this be a new gig, after you retire from dentistry?

I cannot afford to retire. Gotta support my habit.

Are you sure he just did not want to fool with it?



The answer will keep you awake for nights to come...


Well done.

Actually, I feel fortunate that I have Bobby's Alignment Shop available to me. Those guys are really old school and understand independent rear suspensions and the tricks to aligning them. Had I gone to one of the more modern shops, I would prolly have worried!

I may need your services in a few weeks. Would you like to share your technique?

I checked and Firestone has the numbers in their machine. The alignment guy I talked to seemed to think he would have no problem, I doubt it.
