Need Alignment work in NW

I've decided the next step in trying to fixing my wandering issue is to have the adjustable caster shims put in.

I live in North Idaho and need to find a good alignment shop in Coeur d'Alene or Spokane, WA who will know about the shims/bushings, and will be willing to set max caster with them. It looks like my local NAPA store has them, so I'll probably just buy them myself and have a shop put them in.

Anyone have a suggestion?

Thanks!
RD

If your rig is a 4x4 Excursion, and all your suspension components are working within factory specs, your first move, much less your next move, should be to replace the craptastic springs Ford put on the 4x4 Excursion.
