Default North Houston alignment?

Hi,

I'm looking to get my 2014 Camaro aligned in the North Houston area. I know there are several people who are capable of doing this but almost none have heard of timing the bushings for the drop in suspension travel. (I just installed the BMR springs)


It is the last page in this link:

17. Re-indexing the rear suspension bushings

I would like to know as well, those two would be much closer to me. Need someone that can adjust tubular lower front control arms and a bump stop kit...

VZ Auto is a no. do not use them. i have had several freinds go there and have to go back several times to get it correct. even for just a simple Gen 2 CTS-V alignment till he just had to tell them to refund his money.

Sal's Autosport certainly. you cant get better than Sals. Sal himself does the alignments. he has been doing alignments and suspension work for over 20 years.

+1, they did my lowered T/A. They work on drag/autocross cars all the time and know what they're doing.

Chris' Car Doc in Humble did the alignment on my race car and on my 2004 Suburban. I can let go of the wheel of the race car at 120 mph and it goes straight as an arrow.

Just had the guys at VZ knock out some stuff, alignment included. Top notch crew and facility. Vic is a stand-up guy and was very informative throughout the hole process.
