Tell me how a bad alignment can cause a bad vibration. I've been doing alignments for over 5yrs and not once have I seen an alignment cause a bad vibration. We've had many a customer complain about a bad vibe and they thought an alignment would fix it. When a vehicle has a bad vibe, it's either in the tires/wheels or a suspension part is failing or has already failed. Please tell me how all my instructers from Firestone training, GM Training, and Auto Tech training have taught me wrong.

with the lowered trans ams, they tend to have a problem getting them on the rack to align them, cuz the front end sticks out a little, and their afraid itll scrape goin on, and gettin it off might cause damage(pull the air dam or some dumb ****) they gotta play it safe though you know. someone will go and complain and try and rip em off for it
