I align my car at home but wanted to know where I'm at with everything.. Would it be a good idea to have my car put on a rack at one of the local big box stores and get a computer print out?

Thank you,
Jeff

An alignment machine is only as good as the tech doing the alignment, and the tech maintaining the machine. That said I have worked with over 50 'alignment techs' and only one had even a remote idea what he was doing. Spend the time to do it right a home and know it was done right, you can be incredibly accurate if you do it right.

What tools specifically would you recommend? I have 4 project cars - I think I can payout the cost of the tools. -Bob

I have this and it works great! It took a little time for me to get familiar with it, but now I can align my car in 30 mins. I would highly recommend it.
