Are any of you guys using a DIY wheel alignment systems for the track or home use?

it has gotten to the point that i really would like to pick up one of these systems from Quicktracks or Longacre or whomever you guys can recommend.

since the time and cost of having any local shop align my car and each time its more trial and error its costing a fortune and i would like the opportunity to make these adjustments myself at home.

i figured i would buy some front turntables and one of these kits but i have no experience with these kits or using such equipment to know if i would be wasting my money and time or will i get good results./


im sure some of you guys have used and tried this stuff out especially for the avid racers on the board.

I have actually been thinking about buying a system myself. The last few times I set my camber by eye and toe with a tape measure then took it to NTB for a "free" alignment check. Each time it was good. But hard to actually measure caster without a gauge. Any feedback on the DIY systems would be appreciated.

it seems Quicktracks has a money back policy and Summit sells it. Also ridetech seems to be selling this kit as well. if they stand behind their product for $400 i think il order one tonight and try it out

Here's a good discussion on the same subject.

i got the turnplates and quicktrick OTW, this will be my weekend project, i figure for me spending $500 on all this stuff thats like another 3 failed attempts on an alignment rack with a tech who knows crap about a performance set up in my neck of the woods plus if it totally sucks im sure one of my friends will buy everything off me in a flash once they see i have it.
