Alignment shop suggestions

Hey guys. Been a while since ive been on the forum. I have been thrashing to get my car done for a while now, and got it done two days after the cookout. Sorry I missed it.

I need to get my alignment done. I have an insane amount of rear toe in, and im pretty sure the camber will become an issue once that is fixed. I have a buddy in belle plaine with a alignment rack, but I was hoping somebody new of a place a little closer that had expierience aligning 2g AWD cars.

Thanks

I personally aligned andrew's (asshanson) and a few other's 2g's, and my 1g, and some other cars. I worked at Goodyear in MG, Pete (polishmafia) still works there. Otherwise, the alignment guy is a good choice, so I hear...good luck!

Look no further, Jeff is the best. I refuse to go anywhere else. He aligns cars most of us only dream of being able to afford.

Emailing him works best, he's usually under a car and hates getting up to answer the phone.

Re: Alignment shop suggestions

Jeff the Alignment Guy in Bloomington, MN is the only place I go to and recommend. He is very good and what he does and his prices are very reasonable. I also use him for tire mounting/balancing and he also does misc. brake and suspension labor.

Re: Alignment shop suggestions

Wow. Quick, responces and everybody seems to agree! Ill write him an email right now!

I used to go to a place called performance wheel alignment in bloomington. He did amazing things with cars I thought could never drive well. Sadly, he closed his doors last year though. God to hear there is somebody else in the area that does that level of work.

Re: Alignment shop suggestions

The good ones usually are. The guy that does all of my welding is the same way. Ive watched him toss a full 6ft long, 12 drawer tool chest across the room before. But, the man can weld a pop can closed in one bead and it wont leak. You learn to deal with it.
