      If you really don't want to try it yourself (took me 10 to 12 times to get it right) with string and a level (better equipment is available), find a guy who can align the old fashioned way, without the stupid computer pods. Better still, find a guy who's been doing it for about 30 years, and is capable of understanding what camber actually looks like on a wheel--this is not a common talent in today's alignment shop. The main point is this: Most guys who align cars for a living suck at it. Learning how to do it yourself is the best relief, and it's really not that hard. Just be patient, and stay away from chain tire shops.

      I do it for a living 25 years, find someone who knows why they are setting to your specs. It's not that hard.
