alignment issues

I live in the city Garden grove (next to Anaheim) and I've been asking the local places and all said no to doing my alignment. they won't do it either because the car is too low or they are not qualify to mess with aftermarket cambers. did u guys have this issue? any suggestion on place near by?

Umm....it varies from different cars. I know lowered car is a little more. Give them a call. And they also give you limited warranty.

do they do camber adjustments as well?

my front camber is loose... I already got two alignments before making my 6 hour trek and still loose. fail.. I got front+rear camber kit.

As for the firestone, do they have ''under the floor" lift or on top of the floor lift?

I'm pretty sure they won't adjust front camber if you're too low... I had a front camber kit on my tl and went to firestone to have them straighten it up, but they said no because the car was too low to reach the camber adjustment...they may have just been bs'ing me though.

I just got my alignment done yesterday at firestone also, I did it not on brookhurst and westminster but I went down to HB, more like Magnolia and Talbert. They did it for 70, kinda pricey but yeah, they did it. Cool guys too. Oh, I'm slammed too and they know how to work with a camber kit.
