| Looking for a shop to install camber kit and do alignment
Not sure if this is the correct forum or not, but I'm looking for a shop (preferably in the Surrey/Langley/Abbotsford area) that can install (or sell and install) a camber kit for me, and perform an alignment.
Please PM if you have a shop or can recommend a good shop!

I went to Dales.
if you have your own camber bolts, they won't use them and will make you buy theirs.
$17 online vs $69 from them. (just a heads up in case you need / will be using camber bolts )

+1 for Dales Alignment, since you're in their area. I wouldn't bother making the trip there if you didn't live close though...there are other places in rmd/bby that are not bad.

in all fairness, having worked at other shops before where customers brought their own parts via "bought on ebay". no problem if they were brand name parts, but you try installing a wrx downpipe off ebay where they provide you a mounting bolt that if mounted correctly, the bolt would be drilled right in line of a turbo blade...
that is the main reason why shops rather get you to buy theirs, or brands they stock which they have tested or are use to installing.
camber kits, though no real brain needed, still need some exact measurements to get ur camber/toe sitting right, if the kit is crap, ur not gonna get a very good alignment because of it. Quote:

How much does Dale's charge for a 4 wheel alignment? Will they charge more for an aggressively lowered car? Posted via RS Mobile |

I think its 99.9. Jason does an amazing job and is very knowledgable when it comes to aftermarket stuff.

I just installed my adjustable upper control arms and was so out of whack. I want an alignment which is tailor to my likings. So i went Dale's today, and i am still very happy about what they did. They even went further than i expected and took the arms out and do some adjustments. At last i got what i wanted and now have custom toe, caster and camber specs to my likings.
They start with $99 for a 4 wheel alignment and if you need camber adjustment and such, will probably be a little more. I paid $130 for mine. Well satisfied.

I ONLY use Dales for any alignment work. Jason is the only one who touches my car. Just take it there. There is really no other answer especially since you said in Langley and that's where they are.
