I need to align a couple cars and would like to do it myself. Don't trust local shops anymore with the old stuff. Building tools, etc, not a problem. Doing some google searches and just looking any advice on what to do or not, etc.Low buck is my middle name here so I'm not going to buy a $400 kit.
Thanks.
I spent 200 bucks on this tool. It was a good investment. Fast trax is what it's called. It helps you do all three settings including toe. Works well!
I leveled my turn plates side to side.
Turn plates are 14 ga steel with grease in between them. They were scrap and free. That's all it takes on our old cars.
I've done 4 cars now and drove plenty of miles, works reAL GOOD AND IS NICE TO MAKE CHANGES AND GO DRIVE THE CAR AND feel the changes. Then It's nice to recheck and make sure it's not changing. Buy your own tool is so worth it and don't have any bozos driving your car after they try to align it.
