GTA shops for alignment

I know a really good alignment guy, but he's in Milton..



can anyone recomend in the North York/Markham where you've taken your FRS/BRS for an alignment and were treated properly?

Got mine done at K.S.L. Automotive in Markham (Heritage Rd off Laidlaw Blvd). Cheap and done by the owner himself. Good guy. Will go again.

In all honesty, I'd make the drive to Scott if it's for a performance alignment. If it's just to factory specs I would be way less picky.

yeah just for a factory spec, i don't have any of the mods for a track alignment anway, which is why i don't want to make the drive out to Scott.

it's been almost 1.5 years since my last alignment :o

but yeah, definititely CanAlignment for any race alignment.

Did they align to their spec or your spec? Did they have a laser rack?

They aligned to my spec, well sort of anyway, they misunderstood me and gave me a bit too much camber in the rear. I have camber bolts and LCAs and they didn't seem to have any problems working with either.

I'm not sure if they had laser.

I'm not really recommending them, but a dealer is likely more convenient than most of these other places.

I thought Hunter laser rigs been around since the late 80's / early 90's.

BTW I just had an alignment done back in October, 4000km later I need another alignment. Dam double wishbones!
