Well the trucks is getting closer and closer to being done. I am at the point where an alignment is due and I can't find a shop that will do the adjustment the way the factory says to do it. They want to adjust caster with different thickness shims on either front or back side of the control arm. Is this permissible? will the caster change at a different rate during turning doing this way? or cause any other problems?
I've been to five shops and the prices range from $90 to $200 and only the $200 one would set the camber near 0 but still shimming it wrong. Two shops turned me away after realizing how difficult the job would be.
The stealership quoted me $90 but I think the service writer was too distracted checking out my truck (at least someone appreciates it) or really hates the alignment guy.
