Alignment shop made pull worse. Any better shops in OC?

    After reading fairly good reviews on yelp, I went to 714 Tires to get my alignment done. All they did was fix my toe, but couldn't do anything about my camber and caster, which was causing a pull.

    I've read about the firestone lifetime deal, but I'm not sure if I trust them working on a lifted truck.

    Can anyone recommend a shop that does a good alignment and can work with lifted trucks? I also would rather not pay $100+ on an alignment.

    B&D alignment in Whittier does a good job.

    Did they give you a reason for not being able to make the adjustments? It seems to me there are bigger issues here than the shop doing the work.

    All they said is that the camber adjustment were "maxxed out". Whatever that means...:confused: He also said it could be because of my lift. My inner tie rod needs to be replaced, so I wonder if that could be causing some issues.
