Title: Four wheel alignment in yorkshire
Post by: kev-yorks on May 13, 2006, 04:24:26 PM
Got the alignment done on the Cosmo today, anyone in Yorkshire wanting there suspension done. Gordons tyres at Wakefield have the four wheel laser alignment gear and are very cheap £30 for four wheel toe adjustment and £5 a time for every other adjustment they do, so worst case your looking at £60 for four wheel toe adjustment front caster, camber and rear camber. They where pretty good with the MOT as well put the analizer into display mode for me while i plugged in the laptop and turned the emmisions down. Then did the emmisions test after it was low enough to pass.

Hmm, that\'s not too far from me. I could do with the suspension sorting really and get them to raise it half an inch or so :)

Right i went there this week and got my car sorted with the new rims & tyres...

This place is the mutz nutz! All their equipment is state of the art, brand spanking new and i hear the alignment machine is the only one in the UK & cost £45k!!!!!!

I got my wheels aligned fully (cast, camber & toe) total of 2&1/2 hours work over 2 days aswell as my suspension checked on a real suspension shock tester like manufacturers use all for £30 something SQUID!! YEH £30 SQUID!!! Most places charge £25 just for laser alignment which is shiitty in comparison...

I will never let anybody touch my suspension or tracking again on any of the cars period.

P.S - This should be made a sticky, even if i lived in London, i would travel the 200 miles to get the alignment sorted properly! Thats how confident i am :)

Edit: Gonna go down with the Supra this week so i\'ll get some pics up and try & organise club discount
