Anyone know a good place for alignments?

Thanks DE for the struts! My car no longer looks like it is a 4-wheel drive vehicle.

IPS' shop is humongous. They must have 30 cars or more inside the building. Several 1000HP Camaros & Vettes. Also got to see the Twin Turbo V6. I hope they figure out the fuel issues on it so they can shoot way past the 400HP mark.

I was glad to help.

I go to the alignment shop right around the corner from IPS, but I know that is nowhere near you.

Post pictures of your car when you can.

I'll get some pics tomorrow. It was getting dark when I finished up, then my wife jumped in and took it the store.

Another place that isn't close to you, but does a great job is Back Street Performance. I like them because they can to more than just an alignment. They can corner balance, toe, camber, etc

I'll second the work of Back Street Performance for alignments After they Pedderized my car they took over 3 hours to do the alignment, toe, camber etc. And they didn't use high falutin' gizmos and gadgets either - they did it the old-fashion way and Merlin drives like a champ.

Anybody heading out to Lofino's tonight? Weather's looking decent and not nearly as hot as previous Fridays.

I am going drag racing with my car and I need a helmet. Can anybody recommend a shop in the Columbus area where I can buy one? Thanks.

After installing the SS struts an Pfadt springs, each corner dropped about 1-3/8. No more muddin' in the Camaro for me.
