Message	This is just my time and I'm happy to learn another skill so I'm pretty set on doing it. The alignment rack here in town I can use for sure, the guy with the scales in town is a bit of a dick and I don't know if he will loan them out to me. I can drive 1.5 hours north and use BlackholeZ's scales but there is no free use of an alignment rack up there plus the cost of fuel. The parts car I took all this suspension stuff off of had been corner balanced and the way it drove was night and day compared to my car.
