    I don't know if it holds an alignment to be honest with you.
    It tracks pretty damn straight most the time, but I do feel like something sometimes 'flips' and it'll drag one way or the other. Maybe settling in and out of a dent/hole in the LCA bushing.
    My tie rod ends are shot as well so that doesn't help there either (told you my list is long).

    At the moment I could really care less and that $150 has better places to go than an alignment. I have cheapo chinese tires that came with the wheels I bought off FB, so until they're worn out its pretty low on my list of concerns.

    Guess that doesn't really help you but that's where I'm at.

    It honestly sucks. And ours are way better than north or west of here. (Unless they've been used on the beach, then they're just brown swiss cheese)

    That guy ended up saying it needed too much for that after I told him about the driveshaft, even after I told him I was getting a new one built. He said “I only use OEM parts” when I said it was getting built by a local shop. I guess he must like the smell of his farts. I thought people appreciated sellers being open about what all is wrong with a car, but maybe I was wrong.

    Finally went through the process to get my TSA PreCheck done for faster security checks through the airport. Got the approval email... apparently my federal background check was all good, not that I was worried (maybe a little)

    Well this blows

    I haven't been in the garage today or yesterday until now

    Didn't realize I left my jug of acetone uncapped for the last 2 days

    On the plus side, it's almost empty but it sucks that its strength has definitely lowered as I'm wiping down the last order before shipping tomorrow

    Definitely is a rare sighting in nature. There is one in Monterey bay CA at a high end car rental place. One day I want to stop and check it out.
