Yeah, and it's all my fault
I actually got them to align mine again after I did all new bushings and a CB recently, but the love is clearly gone from the relationship. The fundamental problem is they got a new alignment guy who swings more to the 'import' persuasion, and doesn't really know schidt about suspensions. For example, he didn't know to loosen the 2 bolts that hold the trailing arm to the spring plate before trying to turn the eccentrics. He didn't know to remove the shock tower brace before trying to set the front camber & caster. He fscked something up on the front end, such that the steering wheel wasn't straight, so he pops the steering wheel off and re-orients it...and doesn't torque it back down!
I was talking to Ron Kain @ IPB a few days ago, and I was meaning to ask him who does his alignments, but I forgot. Schatz and Krum also does 911 alignments, but you have to leave the car for the day.
