    The Firestone in Downey fiddled with my dad's spc's until they got it right. And lifetime alignment. I also got lifetime with them but I'm running dirt king uca's. I've also had good experiences with Santa Ana Firestone.

    Socal can be anywhere......
    Truline in Santee...
    Eastcounty Alignment in Santee...
    Any of the offroad shops, only one I can recommend is Street Trenz, Santee, Eric Wahlgren the owner, is down to earth, honest, & just all around good dude, has been around for years....

    I dont do 4wheel parts, offroad warehouse.....

    But then again, you say socal & you might be in Oceanside....

    Tyerman's Automotive in Burbank. They have a guy who does 4x4 and modified suspension alignments, I think you'll need to get and appointment for this guy so call them.

    I was surprised how many shops in LA can only do alignments following manufacturer specs and nothing else.

    I do them at work. I also do lift installs on the side.

    The shop I work at is TopLine Performance in Huntington Beach. We work on a ton of Toyota trucks, and classic cars.

    I didn’t know you do alignments too. How much does the shop charge for an alignment?

    yes RPM Garage will work with SPCs, they install and align them how you want them. I have SPCs on my truck and I’ve had more than a few alignments done with them
