Maybe Bill would know if he's still there, but Chapin's on Telegraph Road just East of Carmenita in Whittier was always an excellent place, and it's been there (if it still is) for a long, long time.

If you mean this Bill, I've never heard of the place, and it's less than a mile from where I sit. Brady, if you want me to drive by and look for such a place just shout. I would be happy to do so.
There is a muffler shop that's been there a long time. Garrett Automotive who has been my regular mechanic for many years. A Triumph motorcycle shop. But I don't remember an alignment specialist shop.

There's Vodies in Garden Grove on Garden Grove Blvd. I think they're first alignment was on a stagecoach. I've used them for years with good results.

Anyone know of a good shop a little closer to the desert. Costa mesa is a bit of a drive. Maybe somewhere in the IE?

I'm in Costa Mesa and have never heard of or seen the 1st place mentioned - but you know I will keep my eyes out now.
Brady - if/when you go there - ask them about bending the beams to correct camber after a lift. Maybe they will do yours cheaper than Autofab...
*edit* - Jake08 - you know where abouts Expert Alignement is? I did a google search to find an address and came up with nothing. Brady - if you call the guy - let me know where his shop is.
Also - they used to be a place off Harbor in Santa Ana - Harbor trucks I think it was called. They did the bigger trucks and I'm sure could do yours if they are still there. I'd have to look up exactly where they were though as it's been a while...
