  • March is here, so bring on the race cars! Thought the weather may not feel like it depending on the day here in central Ohio spring time means project cars and race cars / trucks are coming out of their garages and getting ready to throw down on the tracks, drag strips, and straight sections of country roads. Something we are widely known for in our region is drag race alignment and suspension setups.
    Far more than the standard "Toe and Go" alignment most shops perform we are dialing in all the individual bits and pieces our customer has for maximum function. Caster, Camber, Toe, Ride height, Scaling, bump steer, and more, all part of a proper race car alignment and suspension setup. We're back on our Hunter Alignment rack today getting another long term project wrapped up and running straight!

      That's what it's all about for us Mike, do it right, do it once. Especially with cars like this, don't screw around you could cost someone their life by doing it wrong.

    These aftermarket tubular a arms and kmember are designed wrong and are dangerous, they should not have a slot to slide on, the only one that does it correctly is burkhart chassis and UMI has a version for road racing that solves this issue with them being able to slide no matter how much you tighten them bolts. I have a spool and wide slicks, I couldnt back out out of my garage without them sliding and I ended up weldin tbe washer and later I welded on some tabs on each side of the slot, and than I had a plate sandwiched in between with a hole for the bolt to go thru, I made 20 plates with each hole moved 1/16" to adjust them only to find out UMI uses this same style on their setup.

    No upper control arm adjustments? I have adjustments on mine but you have to pull the strut to adjust it. So makes it hard.

    Did this car have a rear sway bar or anti roll bar? It did not look like it did.

    What is the cost for you to do this? I have a fourth GEN Camaro that basically needs the same thing done everything on mine is BMR and one of the problems I’m having is the car is very hard to steer while driving. It does have a manual rack on it, but it’s harder than it should be, I live in Kansas and would be willing to make a trip to you

      It's really hard to say until we get the machine on the rack and see just where we are, sometimes it's 2 hours, sometimes it's 8 hours, just depends. There's a lot of change, test, reset, change, test, reset that happens on something like this. NO ONE wants to watch a 6 hour video of us doing something like this so there's a lot that doesn't make it into the video. But when you are playing in a game where doing it wrong can cost a car or a life, you don't cut corners. Make sure it's right, make sure it's ready to come right off our rack and make a pass. We would certainly be more than happy to help out on yours just give us a call and we can work on scheduling, something like that we would block out the entire day just to make sure any challenges that may pop up we can handle.
