Having a good mechanic (or alignment tech) that knows what they are doing and the individual car they are working on is very valuable.......Devek works on ALOT of 928's......for many years....they know what they are doing! When I eventually replace my springs-shocks I will have devek do my alignment!

Nicole,
If they used the special bolt to align the rack first, you should be just fine.
Nearly all 928 are lower than the factory spec. when new. Porsche actually allows for a small margin below new factory spec. You are within the ball park if you cars sits 10 mm lower than new.

I drove about 300 miles this weekend - freeways, hiways, fast straights, tight twisties, smooth and bumpy surfaces - you name it, I drove it. And the car handled everything with precision and grace.

Unless some unusual wear shows later, this alignment will be my reference in the future.

Thanks, DEVEK and Steve (the alignment technician)!

Would you mind if I ask what they charged for comparison purposes? Eurosport in Va Beach told me $250 assuming no parts need replacement.

Thanks, Mike
