That goes without saying Jim,i'd already had the alignment done on three separate occasions without much success,that's with me even providing the correct settings.

It still had a tendency to 'track' the tyres.
i.e. uneven wear on the inside edges indicating a toe out situation.
Trying to find someone round here actually to do it properly requires the skills of Indiana Jones seeking the Holy Grail!
Big,fancy $40,000 alignment rigs that no-one seems to be able to use properly.
I even had to intervene to find the settings for a Mustang 2 set-up for one guy,which the thing had in it's database!
The usual (standard)response is "we've just set the toe to zero,keep an eye on your tyres" big_eek

My most recent response to that was "in that case i've also set my bill to zero as you haven't performed the job properly!"
They didn't charge me...... grin
