So I just got alignement because I just put in a lift and it rides awesome. Never new an aligment could make such a difference even the sound of my tires went down. The only thing is now my steering wheel is off more like a 7 and 2 o'clock position. Not sure if I should take it back so they can fix the steering wheel I am afraid it could put the alignment out of wack. Should I deal with it or bring it back? |

Take it back for sure Alignment can be set with the wheel straight, alignment guy just didn't take the time to do the whole job |

Shame on the technician for not checking it. There are occasions where I have heard the technician getting yelled at for centering the steering wheel because they liked it off kilter so that they can read their clock or whatever easier, but that is a rarity. As Jack Nicholson said in "The Last Detail." "You paid for cheese, you should get cheese." |
