Re: Bert's Alignment?
Chris @ Bert's did an awesome job on my Integra. Even chatted with him for awhile about camber kits and whatnot. I didn't have enough for a 4 wheel alignment, but he did it anyways, even though I only paid for 2. Didn't have a camber kit in the rear so he didn't fix that, but did toe and caster. Good guy and does good work. Big thumbs up from me.

I pais 60 for my truck and I have it pretty low from factory spec. Im sure they will love to see me when i come back with a notched frame rail. Good people up there though...they actually drive it before and after to make sure its right.

i have my car there now and started a thread on it http://www.g2ic.com/forums/showthrea...78#post1638578
chris is the one there doing mine but to choose to "bend" my parts into alignment over using a camber kit is a little leary.

after hearing the words bend and knuckle in the same sentence i'll never go there again and i can't believe so many of you guys let that go down on your suspension.

berts does great work. ingalls camber kit is shit. he did not bend the knuckle. ask him what they did. chris has always and will always do top quality work. He aligns the race car, the mom's car, the truck, all customer cars, and abacus takes anything from lexus, jag, porsche, etc up there too. they know whats up.

Re: Bert's Alignment?
thats what i heard. i just got a little scared about the bending which is what he told me he was and always has done. if the ingalls sucks what do you suggest i do? should i take chriss' suggestion (the berts employee) and simply get the stock oem fixed upper control arm and let him torch my knuckle till it gets soft and then let him pull on my wheel till it gets aligned straight followed by cooling back down my non movable part to get it in line? this just sounds like an easy way out to me, but i trust people who have had more experience with this than me. thats the reason i'm asking these questions

my 92 accord was slammed 3 1/2" so the camber kit wouldnt work on mine according to chris. He "BENT" the upper control arms and shimmed the hell out of the back, put it back to factory specs.Before that I was going through front tires every 3 months and rear ones every 6, if I took hand off steering wheel it made a HARD RIGHT TURN, but since then PERFECTION. Its been 5yrs and no problems.Chris told me cost was dependent on how farout of alignment it was and mine was pretty bad, rear camber(-3 1/2)/ \ toe (-3) front camber (-4 3/4)/ \ toe (-4 1/2) cost me $280..

I'm gonna give All Aspects a try and see what they can do! I'm not fond of bending my OEM parts either because what happens when you may wanna adjust your vehicle ride height? Bend it again?.....Ehh It's just not for me!
