Yea, ofcourse ive looked at that thread already and if u look under wheel alignment numbers are of the 714 area which pertains to orange county, a 661 area which i think would be going to san diego and west covina nissan which is far from my place! As you can see, on the upper right hand pertaining to my location my area is around the 310, 213, 323, and even 818 so that would be the range of shops i am trying to find and nothing fits that category thats why i posted this and wanted to ask members if they know any shops in the above said area code!

Maybe get a hookup on pricing along the way too!

Nice! Been meaning to ask you about that James, was just kinda iffy! Maybe Ralph can do my long overdue spark plug change! Hahaha! Ill try to get some rear camber arms installed too most likely to get ready for alignment! Ill hit you up when I have everything!

James can you PM me Ralphs sched at the shop! I usually work night shift so its kinda hard to get my sched in sync with the time R&J is open!


Thanks man!

Ralph works Saturday in the afternoon and Sundays anytime by appointment..get your stuff installed by Ralph and then take it for alignment to West End...the problem with West end is you have to schedule an appointment and that can take upwards of 2 weeks. if you schedule don't even think of missing the appointment..I've heard he will black-list you for months but Darren(West end ) does many hi-end cars Porshes, Ferraris etc and is VERY well respected in the racing community...I know several members of this board that will only use him and no-one else. ( me included)

gbert, no 661 in in Santa Clarita by Magic Mountain. It was probably R&G Brake and Alignment, members drive from all over SoCal to get their alignment done there. No ramps to drive up and their price is not only reasonable but done to perfection....661-259-7098 open Mon-Friday only!

80.00 for all four wheels. The more things you get done the better the deals later on.

12.00 if you bring your own oil and filter. If not, 75. with Amsoil full syn.
