If it is lowered, many go to Texas Track Works in Fort Worth. But on a stock suspension car, I am assuming most reputable local places can handle it no problem.

Vehicle is lowered.

FTW might be a stretch unless their pricing is reasonable. Do you know what they usually charge?

Dallas Frame and Alignment located around 635 and 35 also has a floor alignment machine. They've been in business for over 40 years. Based on their website, they align ANYTHING. 18 wheelers, monster trucks, slammed vehicles, even old school vintage cars. I will soon bring my car to them and give it a shot after I purchase new tires for the rear. They quoted $125 for front and rear(one side has a camber and toe problem with nothing bent )

Here is their website http://www.dallasframealignment.com/index.html

I'm sitting pretty low right now. TP in Grand Prairie did mine half a year ago. It wasted $55 of mine for the front and rear. They just dont care too much about their work and the quality isn't there. My buddy who owns a custom paint shop hasn't referred people to them lately either. Just my two cents.

If I wanted alignment expertise, I'd go to Texas Track Works.

I have my own alignment targets I bring to the tech, so I go to NTB, where I have a multi-year (3 or 5 year, I forget) alignment package purchased for under $200.

Which NTB are you using? I find the quality varies per location. The one at Coit and Bush sucks at alignments. The one on Arapaho used to be good but not any more. Mostly problems with not getting the steering wheel centered, etc.

Davis and Precinct Line. They're OK.

I used to deal w/ one in Hutto, TX that had an in-ground rack (no ramps, just drive on) and did custom specs w/ no hassle.

I've been to Texas Track Works, and even though it's a 60 mile drive for me, I'd only go there for an alignment. They do excellent work, and are perfectionists.

I agree that they do great work! Make sure you speak with Kyle, he is the best person to speak with in regards to custom settings and customer service!
