Hook ups on alignment?
I just went to a couple of places to get an alignment done to my car and they all said they can't do the alignment for me. My car is too low even with the front bumper and plastic guards taken off. I was wondering if anyone knows a good/cheap place to get an alignment done where I can actually get the car up the ramp.

Autobacs prices aren't too bad. Their lift is flat with the floor

oh yeah! cant believe i forgot about that place...Darrin is the SHIT!! he only works by appointments, and from what i heard only accepts cash? but either way its like $70ish for all four corners. then after he rides with you to see if he needs to adjust it some more to fit your driving style. he knows his stuff.

i used to go to west end!! they're too far from me now but i got this new guy in the valley.

the company is called Ram Tire. i ask for one guy specifically every time i come in for an alignment. they have a pit instead of a ramp so there aren't any clearance issues. $40 for an alignment, i've always tipped my guy $20 because he deserves it.

Ask for Darrin.
There's usually a 2 weeks wait for appoinment
but a few months ago I only waited for a week.

only fronts are available for adjustments on the fit.

i did my own alignment at work, our dealership is connected with bmw/nissan so we have a extended ramp for lower vehicles (bmw's sit low at stock height) so i kinda lucked out

i pretty much only trust myself working on my car, last time i took it to a shop they stripped 4 lugnuts on the driver side ruined 4 of my brand new lugs and stripped 1 out on the pass side and ruined another lug, causing me to spend another 120 on lugnuts. also they didnt tighten my wheel down all the way.. FAIL.

I like this place. They were really helpful when I went, but I'm not sure about the height issue. I didn't have one with the Vogtlands, but you're obviously lower than that.
