Cost of alignment on lowered truck? What's your go to shop?

[Slammedchevy01]

So just got my 4/7 on my Silverado and ready for alignment, I remember when they were $60 but been calling around and $89-$120!!! Wtf lol

I also have spring spindles in front and flip in back. Any shops give you a bad time about alignment? Had one quote $60 then say that's for a "basic" [emoji848][emoji848][emoji848][emoji1304] and it would be $189 since everything was off and needed to adjust.
Ummmm yea I told u I got all new suspension.

Boo to "basic". He gives me no grief over my drop or mods. He called me when it was up on the rack and asked if I had an alignment after the drop because the driver front tire had some negative camber. No extra special lowered alignment price on mine. sheesh

He is a local family shop since his family set it up in the mid 50s. He charges $69. The performance truck shop charged $100 and they installed my drop. Both came off the rack driving straight again.

I have a local garage that charges $50 for front end only (caster/camber/toe). The only "grief" they've given me was when we discovered I had the wrong uca's and it could not be aligned. Didn't charge me for that trip, said just bring it back when I got the arms sorted out.

My shop handles all rides from stock to far from stock so they don't bat an eye with my mildly modded vehicles. Cost for full alignment is $100

Belle tire. It's like $49 per axle for alinement.

My shop charged me their regular price even though they had to swap out my other set of wheels since their machine wouldn't accommodate 26's.

79 at my dealership. I do mine for free.

The last time I got an alignment was at my local NTB when I got tires. It was $89, I think, or whatever their one time fee is. The alignment tech was very knowledgeable, and had no trouble aligning my Suburban while other shops basically told me to get lost. I told him going in that I knew it was not going to be to factory spec, I just want it to drive straight and not wear the tires out. He said no problem, and it came out great.

I've been to a few places in my area (Missouri), Purcell tire charged me $54 after I put spindles on front and drop springs on back. He didn't complain about the aftermarket suspension parts at all, and he took his time trying to get all of the adjustment out of the upper control arm that he could. Got the front to within -.3 degrees camber (control arm bolts maxed) and everything else was spot on.

Got mine, camber within spec but caster is out. Drives good

no one around you offer lifetime alignments? $120 at my local firestone and they do it for FREE as long as I own the truck.
