Ditto for Roger Kraus - they are in Castro Valley off of 580 at Crow Canyon. I've used them 2x - Brandon Kraus knows his stuff and the other guys are really good about making sure they do things carefully and right.

Oh yeah, +1 for both Custom and Roger, though custom is closer to you.

Its been a while since I brought a car to dependable in SR because of s car go, but they use to do a great job years back.

S-Car-Go don't actually do the alignments, they farm them out to Dependable, who then proceed to scratch your wheels, overtorque your lug nuts, overinflate your tires, set your steering wheel off center, and anything else they can manage to bungle!

Things have changed then because I was in their shop about 2 years ago where they did a 4 wheel alignment and corner balenced my car with me there. I guess they are too busy now and or got rid of their alignment rack?
Oh well.

Hmmm... I've been in and out of S-Car-Go for probably the last 7 or 8 years and have never seen an alignment rack there. Don't know where they'd put it? They do still do corner balances though...

Well hell that explains why they told me to come back in 2 hours. All this time I thought they were doing the alignments in house.
But years back when Rob left hi-tech and opened that shop (must have been over 12 years ago), I swear there was one all the way in the back toward the left?
Oh well.
Sorry, no more pics of car. The one I posted a while back looks like crap now. I need to go out and take more before I regret it. Just washed and zainoed it, and drove. First time it saw the light of day in months. I amazed that the car will still start within 3 or cranks no matter how long it has sat. Sorry to hi-jack thread, I'm out.

Hmmm... I can see I do need to make a more concerted effort to get on the BAP list...

What was this thread about anyway?
