GoodYear on Camp wisdom in Duncanville has done a lot of them. Or Champion spring in Ft Worth off Berry St.

You recommend Goodyear over Professional Tire & Alignment on N. Merrill?

I go to NTB, they have a couple of guys who are really good @ the 183 store in Irving, paid $150 to get the 5 year unlimited service, you can take your truck to them how ever many times you want for 5 years and the policy transfers to another vehicle if you sell you truck/car

Prof is old and a pain to deal with. They don't have modern equipment and I haven't been impressed by their work. I prefer Dallas Frame or Gary's alignment in Dallas myself.

I want to go to the best, so would Garys alignment be the one to go to?

Champion Spring on Henderson just 1/4 block north of I30 is the best IMO.

You will need to call Mike and schedule- they open early. If you can get it in at 7 or 7:30am you should be out by 8:30 or 9

Go to Dallas frame...they are the best here locally. Talk to Bobby. Tell him George from hot rods by George told you to call. He's the only one I can vouch for have used him for years.

when i had my L i went to the doug stanley ford in desoto. their number one guy (don't remember his name but he's very tall) is great and they have modern equipment. goodyear in duncanville sucks!! when terry put my front lowering spindles on he eye-balled a better alignment then goodyear could do with their equipment.

Got to be carefull on the equipment deal...I worked @ Sewell and they had the best stuff money could buy. The techs had no idea what they were doing , just did what the machine told them to do. You really want someone that understands alignment principles. Someone who actually knows what to do say..compensate for bigger tires or a lowered truck. I can teach allmost anyone to run a alignment machine in about 5 minutes and they could align cars. BUT when a problem or something out of the ordinary comes up they have no clue. That is why I recomend Bobby @ Dallas Frame he knows what he is doing ( he could do a better alignment with a piece of string than most can do with a 50k machine )
Anyway just my 2 cents

+1 That is how Van (alignment guy) is at Champion. They are working on a machine that has probably been there for 30+years but he knows how to compensate for all the variables. I've seen so many lowered L's that have feathered tire wear on the left front- I've never had that issue since going to Champion.

Almost :) Dallas frame and alignment is one of the best if not the best in town.

I am a front end specialist at Don Davis Ford with many years experience and thousands of alignments performed. I also happen to be the SVT specialist. You won't be disappointed.
