Title: Camber / Wheel Alignment Questions
Post by: Comer on August 11, 2003, 17:34
I've discussed this at the weekend with some of you.  But I just wanted it on record in case anyone else fits Lowering Springs / Sportivo etc.

How much does a camber / wheel alignment normally cost?

How long does it normally take?

Any recommended places Mr T or non Toyota?

I'm hoping to have mine done at Elite in Rainham for £? when I get my H&S exhaust fitted down the road at Basildon but time may be the deciding factor.

My local MrT quotes 1 hour, at £59 +vat (although I'm also looking for somewhere else reputable and local).

Sounds like the price Toyota asks around here as well.

But why would you wanna go to Toyota anyway? The non-Toyota garages use the same equipment as Toyota, have all the same values and tools, care about the customer (knowing they have no reason to come back, if they don't like the service) and have better prices.

I paid 40 euros (£28 including VAT) for alignment. They had the same 4-wheel laser alignment machine as local Toyota dealerss (actually they had a newer version of it).

Edit: Oh and they also had crash bolts for MR2  s;) ;) s;)  Didn't need them though..
