Need suggestions on lowered truck

[TP Derrick D]

Hey who do you guys in Tarrant County use for front end alignment on lowered trucks? I had it done at Nichols Ford when I had the teenage stockers on back in 2001, at Driven automotive on Pioneer in 2003 when I put the 20's on and at Texan Ford last year right before my fender bender. Since then I notice wear on brand new tires(Nichols Bodyshop did not do alignment after accident but said its within specs and its maxed out)He told me I need to go to a shop that do lower cars with 20+ size wheels. I did a search and read a post from Dec '04 that said Champion off hwy 199. They still open, Terry who do you recommend after you lower L's? I use my L as a daily now,just put on 4 new rollers and not ready to repace a tire worn on the corner only.Terry by the way I'm just over 74,000 so I'm putting together a list of maintenance I want you to do @ 75,000. So give me some info on alignment shops.

yeah thanks gentlemen, I mentioned them because I found a old post from 2004 that Steve-o recommended them to Jeff56. I'll roll over there because I got bad inside wear on 6 month old tires.The area from the fist groove to the edge is far worn compared to rest of tire that still looks new. This place in the yellow pages so I can get an addy? Hey Jeff-ro we still need to hook up when your honeymoon is over:tu:

I don't think so. I got my truck done in 2003 at Ford Racing Superstore on Cooper, its a Ground Force kit. Then had the alignment done at Driven Automotive on Pioneer because they were the only shop I found to do it on 20"+ wheels. I had cams bolts done in 2001 at Nichols Ford & regular alignment with stockers. I'm going to check out Champion Springs that has been suggested to see what they say.

Champion Spring is here: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=l&hl=en&q=champion+spring&near=76102&layer=&ie=UTF8&z=12&ll=32.822336,-97.322044&spn=0.176859,0.246162&om=1&iwloc=A&iwd=1&cid=32747545,-97337402,17022474431769095172&dtab=0

I had my lowered L aligned at North Main & Tire:

They charged me $60, did a great job too, recommend. I've never used Champion myself, so no comparison.

yeah thanks, I had pulled them up after I got so many recommendations. I don't know if you read the entire post or not but my problem is the fact I'm maxed out on my alignment due to lowering.I paid twice that @ Texan Ford here in Arlington after I put on 4 new rollers and wanted it "perfect". Prior to the new ones ,my old ones show signs of uneven wear on inside edge. But after the $120 Ford alignment I had a fender bender that cut one of my new rollers(driver-frt) before they had 500-600 miles on them.Insurance replaced the cut one but Nichols Ford did not do alignment.Not knowing if accident had knocked it out of alignment & after seeing uneven wear now on current tire I believe its wearing more than I think it should so I checked back with Nichols Bodyshop and they did not do alignment but checked it and found it within specs but I am maxed out on alignment adjustment ability due to lowering. Before this set of tires I put on 20's and had it lowered in spring 2003, had alignment done @ Driven Automotive on Pioneer in Arlington for $60...this time they were a couple days backed up on work and couldn't get me in so I went to Texan. 1 set of tires & 1 alignment in 3 years was OK with me.
I just want a non-wearing alignment for lowered truck at reasonable cost.:cool:
