Johnson's Alignment in Torrance for me. Can't recall the price . . . and my car did not need the corner balance due to the mad skills of the installer.

Glenn Yee at Glenn Yee Motorsports in San Dimas did mine. What a difference it made! Cost in the $200 range.

Call Darin at West End Alignment. He is in Gardena. I am taking my car there in a few weeks. He has done a number of RLers cars and is supposed to be very meticulous and good at what he does. The only bummer is he is backed up about two weeks right now.

Scott, your installer is a moron-- he just got lucky Come to think of it, he got rather lucky on my car as well. It was within 8lbs across the front.

Darin at West End Alignment is the MAN. Bring a good book to read because you will be part of the process . . . and he will transform your car.

Darin (and his son Chris) at West End in Torrance. Honest and great work. Very fair price. He's worked on six of my cars including the 993.

Another plug for Darin @ WestEnd. There's a reason why he's backed up for two weeks!

Hey, Chuck! How are you? One of these days I'll have to meet you down at Darin's. Take care.

Yup... that's the downside of Darrin at West End... he is always at least 2 weeks out.... but well worth it.
