    Any shop recommendations for getting an alignment near Seattle? Preferably someone who has experience with SPC UCAs?

    I was just recommended to Omni in Kirkland as I need one as well, I can't imagine what Mule would charge, first born and a kidney probably

    $189 plus tax. Much less than a first born or kidney.

    I’ve had good luck at the Firestone on Benson (off 180th/Benson) with the lifetime alignment.

    I take my ISF there, but with the ongoing Taco suspension/front end mods: Firestone lifetime alignments work just fine.

    I'm not from your area so can't recommend a good shop. That said, I took the SPC instructions sheet to my local alignment shop and talked to the tech. He'd never worked on them before but got my alignment exactly where I wanted it. I had them set as far as the star bolt castor where I wanted on E. He just needed to adjust toe then adjust camber with the SPC slot. Any good alignment guy should be able to figure it out if handed the instructions. Good and should being the key words here. lol

    Any alignment shop can be pricey if they toast your cam tabs. I forgot I need to fix mine before I can get an alignment. Fuck

    Oh, sorry for any confusion but I was replying to @Tacodog who has icons and lives near me. Since we both have UCAs that are no adjustable like the SPCs, I shared my experience with the Firestone in the area.

    SPCs sound great, but I don’t want them or the hassle of finding a shop in my area that can dial them in. These 74Weld work just fine for me.

    LMAO. No worries man. I thought I was replying to the OP. I'm sure @The Pirate will get it figured out.
