i''m getting several new alignment pieces installed on my accord including front and rear contol arms for camber adjustment. some places i''ve called to do alignments won''t do it because it''s lowered. does anyone know any good places to get this alignment stuff done. I live in boardman near Youngstown OH if this helps identify a nearby place.

well i do know some great mechanics but they can''t do alignments and the places i''ve called all say bascially slim chance. one place offered for me to come and see if it would fit on the rack so maybe i''ll give that a try.

I duno if you have a firestone near you but they offer lifetime alignments for one price. Its great if you have a lowered car b/c your constantly lowering and raising your car. I paid 160 with tax, but prices went up to 190 i think

Beware that Firestone messed up my buddy''s mag''s twice! They paid for reconditioning, but it''s still a PITA.

Yeh i made the mistake of taking my 240sx to a Firestone to get lined up but the dumbutts didnt know what the hell was going on. I guess it depends on how smart the people are that work there and how much experience they have with lowered rides
