Default Knowlegeable Alignment Shop??(Dallas)

I drove around to a couple alignment shops today. They all said my car might high center on the rack. Somebody know of a shop that does sportscars or something? I drive a 4th Gen with springs.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

nothing a couple blocks of wood can't solve. That sounds like an excuse to not work on it. I've had mine on the rack and it actually sits a lil lower than the Z06's, Atleast the front does and i've been able to set it up and align it.

I was able to find a zero-clearance rack at a Euro tuner shop here in the OKC area, surely there is one in DFW.

Only 1 place in the metroplex for a job like this. Dallas Frame and alignment. They are over off harry hines and walnut hill. Owner has had a boat load of c5's and I think his wife still drives one. Top notch work, top notch people, top notch price. Almost positive they offer life time warranty on the alignment if you get all 4 wheels. Best of luck

This is the ONLY place to go if you're in the Dallas area. They've been in business for a very long time...my parents have been going there since they moved here which was in the 70's. My brother had his TA done there and they did an awesome job. It's about $80 and they have never failed us. The main alignment guy knows his stuff like the back of his hand. GO THERE.

They wanted $280 to do a front and rear alignment and then got kind of pissed when I said I could not do it cause they had already started work. And while the price was a shocker, I need to leave, so I could get to work.
