This all depends on whether your bushes are seized or not. Firstly if take the car to a local garage (or have a go yourself) at freeing off your bushes. If they freely rotate you're lucky if not then you need to replace them. Check for loads of posts on seized bushes.

In terms of recommendations i cant recommend Centre Gravity near Tamworth enough. Replaced all my bushes and the guy really knows how alignment works so can configure your car to your preferences. Chris there is a geo expert. It's all he does and he does it on race cars as well as road cars in particular Porsches and S2000s.

I agree, CG is a great place to get a Full geo service. Not cheap, but if you're unsure what setup you want, he'll explain everything to you very clearly, test drive to test what it's like at the moment, then again afterwards. Chris is also very anal when it comes to precision, which I guess comes from his race car pedigree. Top bloke too.
