I'm about 4.5hrs into an alignment and corner balance, which started after a couple hours setting up everything so it was perfectly level. At this point I have ride height, front camber close, balance close, and am about to dive in on rear camber/toe... i.e. just getting to the fine tuning details. Since every change affects everything else, it's... interesting.
If you're not starting out with a coilover install as I did, you may be starting from a slightly better place...
I'd estimate I'll need to do this 5-6 times to break even on what I'd have paid a shop to do the work... ignoring the time investment. I won't have to re-level everything again, and future work will be all about tweaking numbers based on tire temp data, so it should not take me quite this long again. Till I swap springs...
Still, it's a lot of time, and the tools to do it 100% right aren't cheap at the entry level side of things... and they go up in cost from there.
