it seems i need an alignment every couple of weeks. when a precision
machine like my car goes out of alignment by even a little bit, it really
screws this up! (thats a joke too, folks :))
but now i am waiting for my new ADJUSTABLE control arms, courtesy of the
factory,... no more slipping alignments and broken a-arms. yeah!!!
