i need an alignment asap

just swapped subframes a bit ago and i need a good shop to go to near salem, maybe further, to get a good alignment. front and rear. or if anyone has suggestions on where not to go i'd like to hear those too. i know how to adjust everything good enough to cruise around on but i'm looking to get it a little more "spot on". suggestions please.

Sears on Lancaster. I had them do my alignment on one of my 7's while I was in the car. They were able to dial in just a bit more negative camber up front too.
I'm sure they could let you know where its at and get it where you want.

Mark at FD3SEngeering, knows a guy that does lifetime allinghnments for 150, to whatever specs you want. come in and have him fix it all you need. sounds like a good deal too me. I'll be going this route, at 150 it seems like a good deal. I do know its only like 70 for a normal allighnment.

There is one on Liberty and Chemeketa that has a lifetime for $139. I had one done at AJ's for $45 a year ago.

you can also use the fishing line method. it works well enough to beable to drive the car. Thats what I did after swapping my steering rack.
