      Suggestion!:

      Get an in-ground alignment rack! The last time I brought my car to Townfair in Nashua, they ended up paying me nearly $2k in damage for ruining my undercarriage on their alignment rack. It would be nice to go to a place and not have to worry about ground clearance.

        wait.... townfair actually compensated you for screwing ish up?? how'd you pull that off... ive had a cracked rim, scratched wheels from being dropped on their face, and the G's body seam and frame rails get raped by them... and all they'd do is point at a sign on their wall or the contract i signed.... but try and blame me for it, saying it came in like that...


        And an inground allignment rack would be AWESOME alex... Id be coming to you regularly... lol

              I would absolutely be getting alignments there if he got a rack. I'm still looking for a good place that I can trust.

                That would be dope, I have had mine and Jess's M3's aligned multiple times at townfair in manchester with no issue's . I bring my rabbit to Ashby and he aligns it with string cause there is no way to get it on any rack with the.control arms a half inch off the ground .

                  Because I asked the manager twice if the car will make it up the ramp, he stated that he drives lowered cars up these ramps all the time. So I made sure while the car was being driven up the ramp the manager and I was present. And what do you know, FAILED!

                  I gave them the option of either paying my repair shop directly or I would just go directly to my insurance company, either way it would have cost me nothing. It was obvious that the damage was done by them so they didn't even hesitate.

                            and how much you think the dyno was???


                            i pay $100 for Jay to do mine with string cause it takes an Hr. I was looking at getting my own setup and there are some cheaper options they call Mobile that are still laser. like in the $2-3,000 area and then you don't loose any floor space, you just use a lift.


                            Really thinking about it I'm sure you could get use out of it cause you need a good alignment to dyno. You could offer a package deal to get an alignment before your dyno or something.

                                With the right air temp, humidity, and wind speed you could find an alignment setup for a fraction of your quoted price.

                                Doing an alignment on the ground is a PITA.
