Hello all, I live in Seattle.

I have been trying to find a place that would do the wheel alignment after 1-1/2" torsion bar adjustment for PML. Called all the local Midas, Les Shwabs, Discount tires, 4 wheeler shop in lynwood, mineike and no luck. They would not touch it! Where everybody has their's done?

Thank you for your help.

Try the pacific northwest section, theres quite a few seattle guys there.

But yep, les shwabs is a bunch of nazi's. They wouldn't mount tires for me because i didn't get them from them. They weren't sure of the quality. I told them forget the quality and just put them on. I'm not looking for a warranty. Still wouldn't.

Of all the allignment guys I've been to and had work on my cars, for some gawd forsaken reason, the best one I have found is a guy at a Big O Tire store near my house.

The guy is amazing.

I do know that there are Big O tire stores in Seattle. Just go down there and ask them to get it as close to spec as they can.

I got the Firestone lifetime alignment. They've always done a great job for me. They did my wrx after lowering (and even snuck in some negative camber for me) And they did the X after the PML. NO problems

there could be if you dont raise the tbars evenly. that and you change the geometry on the suspension.

honestly, ive never gotten an alignment on my xterra, ever.
