Barry,
Your tale of woe brings back vivid memories of crappy work done to my car
by others :-( After the last go-round with a butt-headed mechanic, I have
vowed never to let anyone else work on the Spit. A bit drastic, but I've
managed to keep that promise to myself so far.
One of the things I have done for myself is a four wheel alignment. It's
really not that hard although it does take a bit of time. I spent the
better part of a Saturday afternoon getting it done, but part of that time
was in developing some of the "tools" required, so next time it shouldn't
take so long.
The method I followed came from the team.net archives. You should be able
to find it from the team.net net home page - I think it's in the autocross
section. (I got it via ftp before this new-fangled WWW stuff existed!)
If you can't find it and are interested in giving it a shot, I can
probably dig up a copy and email it to you.
Good luck,
Mike
