is there any way to put the max in alignment other than to take it to a place to have it done?

unfortunately, i think not.
not well anyway. that's why it's such a biatch to do any strut/spring work.
what i'd like to know is how bad is it to drive real slow on unaligned wheels to go get an alignment after doing spring work.

the tires are a problem, luckily i have my winter rims on right now and i just dont have the same sentimental value for them as i do for the nice ones. the passenger side front tire is getting very bald though, but half of that is because that is the side that spins when i burn out.

get the car aligned! its cost some between $50- $75. even though it doesnt pull after springs the the +/- cambers r slightly off. it will save you more in the long run.:)

i might get the eibach allignment kit that way it is done right. you really cant allign the car correctly once you lower it. if it wasnt lowered i could do it myself, computers and everything, im just trying to figure out what i should do right now before the sun starts shining and the chrome comes back out.

yes get the eibach aligment kit. good investment. but any real good car shop will have cambers in there shop. but i was told its easier if you get or had the kit. especially when u go to put on ur chrommies. dont wanna wear out those expensive tires cause of 75 bucks.:D

My dad has a 98 Infiniti I-30 and he has trouble with his alignment. I don;t know what it is, but I'll try to find out.

well atleast i know that the springs are what threw the allignment, shouldnt be bad other that that. also, has anyone done any minor mods to the exhaust (especially at the resonator) to make it so it will not bottom out. i was thinking about just welding two more clamps up and maybe pulling it about an inch up. any ideas.
