since this topic is brought up, is there any around Long Beach, CA that does good alignment on lowered cars? being cheap is a plus. I don't wanna have to drive up to westminister or garden grove...somewhere closer to long beach..about 10minutes away max lol. Thanks guys.

oh yea, dont mean to thread jack either, i hope you've already got the answers you're looking for OP. But I know platinum VIP does a great job on everything, my friends goes there.

I strongly suggest for you to go to this guy. He really knows his stuff. I'm from SD but I travel 2hrs to get an alignment from this guy! I have a '95 SC400, a little low but not "need to go sideways on speed bumps low", and he only charged me $100 for my first alignment from him. This coming month would be my second after I change all my bushings to polys...

Default Good alignment shop in socal?

I'm going to install my megan toe arms tomorrow and I want to get a good alignment after.

I have the lifetime alignment from Firestone. Any really good Firestones in socal? Anyone know if Hugo is still at one of these? I have been to the one in West Covina (where I live) a few times. Not sure if they'll know how to adjust the toe arms. I'm not trying to knock them, but on two separate occasions I had to show them where the camber adjustment bolt was because they thought the car didn't have adjustment.

Since I dropped it, the camber is at about 2 degrees, so I need the toe at zero, not just green.

Willing to go to another shop, if the price is reasonable and fairly close. Don't want to drive far with messed up toe.

Hugo is at the Firestone in Montclair now. Just call him and find out what day/time he's in next. He does a lot of lowered cars so the camber adjustments shouldn't be a problem for him at all. Just explain what you got and what you want done with the adjustments and you should be good.

The number for the shop he's at should be... (909) 624-9939

Driftspeed in Los Alamitos does an excellent job at alignments.
