Putting my rear suspension back together. New poly bushings, wheel bearings. So my question is can I trust Les Schwab to do a decent job of the alignment? And if not where's a good place in N.Seattle, Lynnwood,Everett area? Where do you get yours done Root? Thanks (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

I would say no on Les Schwab. They have to have the programs for the alignment machines which they probably won't have. Definately won't have the necessary shims for the rear.

There are a few good alignment shops in the Seattle area, Fordahl's is one of them.

I had Les Schwab do mine. They did a fine job and do have good equipment. They didn't have the shims for the back, but since mine were at -1 deg of camber on both sides, I said that works for me.

I'll be going back to them again for the teener.
