Do You Need Wheel Alignment? How Is It Done?
Do You Need Wheel Alignment? May be yes, may be not. It depends on the degree of Toe, Camber and Caster.
Second question is, if you do need alignment, what kind of package price should you choose? Because not all cars make the alignment adjustable, you may not want to pay the standard price without getting the benefit.
My car has over 150K miles & has never been aligned. The camber and caster are not adjustable by design. The toe is only marginal out of alignment, but in order to save my viewers money and time I decided to go through the professional alignment anyway. This video will show how the alignment is done in a shop with the state of the art laser machine.
If you have a Honda Accord & want to know the valid degree range, it is shown at the time 12:50 of this video.
