Best place to get an alignment with aftermarket lift/UCAs in Santa Rosa?

I got it done at Upgrade Tires and Wheels on N Dutton. $500 + 90 for alignment when I got mine lifted last year. My friend just got bilsteins put on at their shop last month and they charged him 650 because he has UCAs with the lift. I didn't have my UCAs when I lifted mine so it was just the 500. They're the cheapest out of the few shops I called to get a quote last year. Most were asking $800+ and the toyota specialty shop Yodaman was quoting me over $1000 plus I'd have to leave the truck there for 5 days because they were so backed up. If you do go to Upgrade, I'd plan ahead and possibly expect to take the truck to another place for an alignment.

 

Thanks, just what I was looking for.

Did you supply the parts and they did the install?

Dino's sounds like a good recommendation for the alignment, I wonder if they do installs.

 

Yep, I supplied the parts. If you ask them about "Bilstein 6112" like I did, they won't know what you're talking about. My coworker that recommended them to me said they mostly do budget kits, specifically Rough Country and spacers or body lifts for people that just want the looks of a lifted truck. Just tell them you have bilstein/fox/icons or whatever shocks you have and they'll install it for you.

 

I just picked up my truck from Ralph's a couple hours ago. Almost thought I wouldn't make it before they closed because work has been so busy, lol. He dialed in my alignment perfectly. No more rubbing against the rear of the fender liner, tracks straight, and everything is just great. I didn't realize he ran the shop all by himself. My respects to the guy for working his ass off. He told me Yodaman sends over trucks to him for alignments and funny enough, Yodaman was one of the places I was planning on calling. Guess it was meant to be to get my truck in at Ralph's, haha. Thanks again guys for the recommendation.

Also, I'm pretty sure I saw peacocks on the side of the road while pulling into his shop lmao.

 

He is awesome. Great guy. I’m going in Friday to dial in my alignment. Glad it worked out.

 

He did mention you were bringing your truck in when I mentioned you sent me to him. Tell him Wilson in the gray taco says thanks again. It's not easy finding a shop that'll do a decent alignment job that isn't a big chain like Firestone (which only aligns to factory specs anyway).

 

Shout Out To Ralphs. Hooked Me Up With the The Tacoma Special Alignment. As Soon As I Said Tacoma On The Phone, He Knew Exactly What I Was Looking For. Went The Same Route As Another User In This Thread, I Had The 6112/5160 (bought online @ SS) Set Up Installed At Upgrade Tires & Wheels (the alignment there was not too bad, just a slight pull to the right) $500.00 w/ UCA's, And A Few Weeks Later, Had My Alignment Done At Ralphs (no pull To the right). Worked Out Fine For Me. I Did All This After Reading This Thread.
