I need to use a alignment rack.

Does anyone have this or knows a shop that will let me use it for an hour?

Thank you.

For $80 i can have the work done by them rather than only using the lift.
Thanks.

neutralize the sways and install the collars for my swaybars.
Even if they can do this for me i will be happy to pay them. I just don't trust anyone here locally to do this. THere is only one shop that will be able to do it and knows what neutralize swaybar is but they are closed on saturday.

If the shop that u know does this, let me have the number and i will give them a call.

When u install the sways while the wheels are hanging, they generally have uneven weight on them which causes unnecessary weight on one side of the sway bar and also can alter the handling of the car. neutralizing keeps the left and right side of the sway on the same kind of pressure by installing them on an alignment rack so the wheels are touching the ground and the suspension is compressed by having the wieght of the car on the suspension.
