i just dropped into one to see how much they would sting me to fit my camber kit and the guy tells me they don't do that sort of thing, i look to my left and there's this huge sign that says "WHEEL ALLIGNMENTS"
i just stood there thinking what the...and asked if he was serious... he responds with "it's a mechanics job" i gazed at him again wondering how it's not related to wheel allignments..................

A lot of tyre joints "wheel alignments" mean that they check and adjust the toe only..

Niko, I was qouted around the $300 mark at Pedders in Geelong. Thought that was a bit on the pricey side myself, but the parts are around 200 so it cant be that far off.

It's not that weird.... Bob Jane in FTG don't do it either. Take it to a suspension specialist like Pedders. They charge a bit though..
