Subject:      Syncro Alignment in South Jersey???

Hi,

Any advice for where to get a Front end alignment done for SyncroBeast in
South Jersey?  We're in the vacinity of Moorestown (east of Phili PA)


The details.

Had the front full apart for 3 years before the relocate to this gawd
forsaken state.  Put her together in a week, West Side VW in Mpls MN did
the alignment just before we left.

They did a good job considering ALL the settings were way off due to the
whole front being pulled down to the frame, but, the left side wheel isn't
centered.

Time to get the left wheel centered.  My quick guess is that I might be
able to do it myself.  Just pull the ling forward a bit to center and redo
toe in.


Any comments or suggestions for local shops competent to tackle the job?
I'm a bit leary of Cherry Hill VW who wants 4 1/2 hours @ shop rate, and
all they have to do is center the left wheel.

TIA

Ch

Carl Hansen
