Portable Wheel Alignment Tools

Wow, lots more comments since I checekd last. Thanks, again.

I took a look at the Intercomp guage. It looks cool. I'm still leaning towards the ART Digital Smart Guage.

I hear what you're all saying about accuracy and people knowing or not knowing what they are doing. I only took a car once to a shop that did computer alignment. I watched them fit the rim attachments and then the car was lifted in the air with the suspension hanging down at full droop. I thought "what the f..." at the time. It was about 16 years ago... my 1986 IROC... It was lowered, and I just thought how in the heck do they do an accurate alignment with the wheels not even on the ground. Maybe I missed half the show, but the car pulled to the right pretty badly afterwards.

I thought forget that and took it the next day to one of my old favorite shops. They did it with a tape measure and mag mounted bubble guages. It drove great after that.



Anyhow, I just want to do my own alignments. It's my ride and most of the fun is in doing everything myself.
