only place i have ever heard of is riverdale engineering?

phone number is 01329 284219

Think setups start at around 70 quid so not cheap, but very good

i dont think its that essential m8 i really dont even think garages give a stuff either half the time, we put our trust in garages to do it right but can we really trust them that they have or have they just just took an educated guess lol

with my fk coilovers m8 when i fitted them i clamped the hub with special 3 way g-clamp and my tracking is still straight after fitting them, my camber needs seting up but for now i just put them in line with bottom hole as that where they are with standard strut on, end of the day ull only have ueven tyre wear

depends what u want really, places like riverdale do give a fuck, they are proper specialists who know what they are doing!

But that comes at a price, if i was gonna be a track day car then a proper set up would help no end. Even if u took it somewhere they may tell u its all lined up as is anyway?
