im assuming Ron Ellis will charge me for every alignment i need, no matter how long its been? i really liked the merchants deal so i could change parts out and get it aligned for free. but i guess it goes back to, you get what you pay for.

I would think Merchants voids your warranty if you make any changes to the suspension between alignments. I know Sears does...

Hell Merchants dont even do alignments.

They have some kid who makes $6.75 an hour that only knows how to toe n go and thats it. Show him camber and he is in trouble. The flat rate techs hardly do alignments because they get paid jack shit for it and its better to not pay the kid to do the alignment. I wouldnt have Merchants align my bicycle.

Merchants told me I could get it aligned there and then put the camber kits on and bring it back and they'd align it again for free.
But like woodrow said, Merchants doesnt do alignments, so fuck em.
