Let's pretend that a Club member might live in the middle of BFE (or Kansas... same thing).
This hypothetical Club member wants to do some F&R suspension work (powdercoat, etc), and then reinstall his A-arms, steering, trailing arms, etc. However, there are no close-by shops that specialize in 914s. So, aside from driving 200 miles to someone qualified - what can this person do? Do you stand there and watch the car get re-aligned? Do you give them the specs, and stand back and hope? Paying for one alignment to "rough it in", and then driving 200 miles to a more qualified shop to pay for the work to be done again - seems like false economy. I'd be interested in hearing any opinions. |
