I need an alignment shop that can do a true 4 wheel alignment on a lowered car. Not Firestone, they only do Thrust alignments which will go out of specs after a few months of driving. I may have to take it to True Align in Santee/El Cajon for it to be done.

Depends on which Firestone you take it to and what model rack/machine they have. When I was working at Firestone I did Calvin's alignment a good 6 times over 2 years (had to do adjustments after lowering and raising and sometimes check it just to make sure) The only measurement that was out every time was the front toe (which gets knocked out by normal driving over time)
