I have a appt at my mechanic next week. I suggested a drive before and after the alignment so they can see whats up.

 

Good..Post up the before and after alignment values so we can compare the "before" with the "after" that you have printed out now. I want to see if my suspicions are right.

 

Guilty. Good reading comprehension, mediocre eyesight. Still, probably better to understand what I can see than see what I can't understand :-).

 

Could be your tie rods as well.

 

Current measurement. My tech is doing an alignment and will road test after.
I had them drive it before and they say they had the same issue.

 

Here are mine after they re-did the alignment. Car handles better and I am not getting the wallowing as before. I don't understand them not being able to get the left front Camber in spec.

 

If it now handles properly, that counts as a victory for you. Nice.

 

New numbers.

Seems to drive better, but more high speed testing this weekend.

 

Any suggestions on new shocks if I were to head in the direction? Also can I get some suggestions on what shock replacement should cost for labor.

Take the plastic panel off next to the battery, then remove 1 nut from the strut (there are 3) and see if the studs are all the way to the inside limit of the slots. If the stud is not all the way to the limit of the slot , then they just didn't adjust it, if it IS all the way to the inside limit then your strut is probably bent and would require replacement

PS: also if you look at the left front camber it was better on the last alignment (according to the numbers) and worse this time without even being moved. Goes back to what I was saying about the set-up and the equipment itself.

 

According to those numbers that car should drive very well on the street.

 

I agree it does drive better. More high speed testing today. It sucks to pick your car up at rush hour. Could not open her up :>
