Default Alignment places

Anyone know any places that do alignment on lowered cars in the fredericksburg or nova area. I would just take it to any shop that does it but I just want to make sure I go to someone experienced and can actually align a car thats lowered and be able to fit up onto machine.

my dad took my car up to Sears, but I don't think it was a good idea b/c the employee there said he couldn't do it at first. My dad was the one who took it though, so he didn't know and just had him align it anyways, guess he just tried it, hopefully he didn't fuck up. What happens if they do a bad job?

Usually places that offer alignments have them setup to where you buy packages. Packages as in how long the alignment is good for. For example, if you bought a 1 year alignment package you could get ur car aligned at that place as many times during the year as you wanted to. If they do a bad job, take it back and have them do it again. It won't cost ya anything b/c you bought the package. My advice though for a lowered vehicle that is lowered more then 1 inch is to not take it to a large place like Sears, etc. Take it to a performance shop that does alignments. As to which one, check w/ other car enthuisiasts who post on here to see who has a good reputation.

Curry's in Sterling does alignments and they have a honda specialist there that knows how to work with camber kits. They will align/camber/caster & toe back to specs.

Negative unless Steve's cleaned up and tightened security on that place.


Curry's is right off Rt.606, behind Rt.28 near Waxpool Rd. but you can get to it by going on 606.

vertex isnt all that bad anymore..maybe this is bias because MYSIQU works there and he's worked on so many hondas and other cars and never shortcuts...thats what i like.
