Default Got my car aligned today.

Ever since I bought my Mustang it has been a little strange on the freeway. It would pick up every little line in the road and try and follow it. I took it in today and had it aligned. The tech told me that it was way out of spec on toe in as it had to much. He set it to zero and found my passenger side inner tie rod end had a tiny bit of play in it. I will replace that later. Everything else was in spec. The car out on the road handles a lot better then before. Not bad for a car with 152k on it.

It was $45 and the guy took his time checking everything. Took him about an hour. I had asked around on where to go and found a good shop that does alignment and brakes. A huge + was the shop is only a few blocks from my house.

that's a good deal, thinking of having my alignment checked out after smashing my way up onto a curb and into a tree!

what shop you go to?
