    Anyone have a recommendation for a good alignment shop in the Springs?

    Hands down the best guy I have used.

    https://adams-alignment-auto-repair.business.site/

    He does my Lexus and my tow rig. He actually asks questions on use and gives the best alignment for how used. For instance, he looked to see if I had a gooseneck hitch and how often I tow. I told him that my diesel is for towing duties only and tow heavy. He aligned my truck for that situation and it really handles better after he was done.

    Jacks on Fillmore is another decent shop.

    It’s a little ghetto down there, but he does really good work.

    I would tune the spc arms how you want them and let a shop do the fine tune. Toytec in Denver has experience with spcs. Only place I know of that does.

    Well, I don't really know what I'm doing. I get the caster forwards and backwards and I think I've got that in the correct spot, but I have no idea where to set the uppper bolt for camber.

    Thanks for the recommendation! I just called him up and scheduled an appt. He says he's got experience with SPC UCA's too which is great.

    Anytime. It took a long time to find a good shop, so keeping him in business is a good thing.
