Alignment issues after intsalling HAL's?
 
I just installed a BMR tubular k-mem and a HAL shocks and springs. I took the car to a shop to get aligned.... and they told me that they can't align it because I changed the ride height on the front?? Is this true... the car has a slight rake to it.

Another problem is that the steering wheel is off alittle to the right... what I mean is if I am driving straight the steering wheel is tilted to the right some. How can I fix this?

The alignment will fix the wheel. I would have to assume they meant they couldn't align it because it now sat too low to get on their alignment rack. :confused:

No they said that since it sat lower "it cant be aligned" :bs: I guess I need to find a better shop.... that was a Firestone shop :judge:

firestone told me the same thing, so i took it somewhere else and got it aligned, firestone sucks.

That doesn't make any sense. The reason I suggested they told you that, was because I had three places tell me they couldn't get my lowered car on their racks because of clearance. Just call around. I got prices all over the board for an alignment. You can get ripped off in a hurry if you don't do a little homework.
