Alignment Shops in Austin Area

I'm looking for a recommendation on an alignment shop who can do a lifted Tacoma. I say Speedy Align was a recommendation, but they are closed until they move to their new location.

Thanks.

 

call my friend

Ive seen them do plenty of lifted Jeeps there (since one of the mechanic is a Jeep guy)

They do great work there too. Read their reviews. Tell them Paul sent you
Funny, my profile pic is my truck getting aligned there. But Im stock height so call first to make sure

 

Any good tech can do the job, just don't go to NTB or any other place that wants to up charge for lifted applications. My personal favorite is Firestone at Parmer and 1431, good solid techs there.

Alignment specs you'll need

1. Caster to 3.5* +/- 0.5* ( More is better, 3.8* is ideal), if on factory control arms, caster must be maxed as much as possible.

2. Camber and Toe must be to factory spec as close to Zero as possible

3. Torque alignment cam nuts/bolts to:
A. 19mm or 3/4" hardware, 110ft#'s
B. 22mm or 7/8" hardware, 130ft#'s

 

I ended up going to Firestone. I'll probable go back, as I have a slight pull to the right.

 

Do you think they would be able to deal with SPC control arms/ball joints?

 

I suggest you set the SPC's yourself, then have the shop adjust the factory alignment points. If your lift is 3" and under, I suggest setting the SPC's to position D and pulling the balljoint all the way outboard.

 

Awesome. Thanks man. I bought my truck used and it has SPC on it, I need to check the position of it. It has a slight drift to the left but I'm not too worried about it. I need to change out one of the rack bellows, so I need to pull the outer tie rod off and then have it aligned after. I guess they can just set the toe and that should be fine. BTW, are you able to do lower ball joints? I don't believe they are "bad" but their boots are open, so they should probably be changed out sooner than later. Let me know! Thanks!

 

I've done plenty of LBJ's. If you bring your LCA's, I can let you use the press and fittings to do em if you want.

 

Thanks man, I appreciate your kindness. I'll hit you up soon.

 

Thank you Texoma. I've made an appointment with Firestone in Cedarpark.
