You wont believe what this fucktard told me, I need to do. He told me I have to cut the strut tower w/ a plasma cutter and re-weld it into a different position
I have heard good things about Ellis and lowered cars.

In a dealership, it will always be hit or miss with getting a knowlegeable mechanic. You may have just gotten a mechanic who is inexperienced. If you see a car in the employee parking lot with lots of aftermarket equipment and sidework done, ask around to see who's car it is, request that person, and be willing to wait for his availability. Think of it like a haircut place. Not much skill required for the basics, but the good ones know what they are doing and work based on appointments. My youngest brother works at a dealership and has enough work by appointments and requests that he is no longer assigned walk-ins.

That's good advice right there.

you dont have to have an alignment machine to do an alignment. it helps, but its not needed.

haha... yeah when i worked in a shop we had lots of "enthusiasts" coming in insisting one thing was their problem, and that we do a specific job, then had trouble believing what the REAL problem was when we found it.. those were always fun conversations
