One time, we had a VERY fat man, who drove a VERY tiny car, he came in for an alignment. We aligned his car, and sent him on his way. He returned to the shop saying that his car pulls to the left. We determined that his weight was the issue. We had to align the car with him inside, up on the lift. It did not pull after that alignment 🤣🤣

That’s because toe cannot cause a pull or drift. Only off center steering wheel. Camber and then caster are what causes pulls or drifts. Also tire pressure. You’re right tho to look at cross numbers. Green does not mean good. You can have a car with over 1 degree difference in camber and it’ll be all green depending on manufacture specs. Which obviously will have a decent pull. Also more common on custom alignments is it’ll be in the red. But if cross numbers match or are within .5 a degree it’ll be straight.

@@zachhall3581 also it depends where that .5 is you usually want .5 more caster on the passenger side to account for road crown, a half a degree more on the driver side plus the road crown will cause the car to go right, I believe rear toe can cause a pull on vehicles with more than 2 axels tho

First time in 40 years I took my car in for an alignment because I was tired of doing them myself. Got it back and it pulled heavy to the left and the steering wheel was way off center. When I got home I had to realign it myself. Lesson learned once again.

You didn't know? Lol. Ever done a cradle shift? You loosen the cradle ever so slightly then stick a bar through it into chassis. Can't tighten the bolts while holding the bar.

Extremely dangerous alignment. A proper alignment requires the car to sit on its own wheels a the ride height AND LOADED with the typical mass it's driven with (for example, the driver himself/herself or an equivalent mass on the driver's seat). Cars typically driven by one person exhibit a slightly greater roll towards the direction of the driver's seat, which in turn affects the suspension geometry.

I’d like to see the sai and included angles. I used to do a lot of alignments for a collision center. Got pretty good at spotting bent parts. Another possibility that he entered the wrong specs. In the end if the vehicle doesn’t pull the caster being out of spec shouldn’t be an issue.

Keep 1 degree for true alignment for correct toe.

Not as thorough of an alignment as he thinks. 1. Gotta jounce the vehicle after everything is tightened up, those numbers will change. 2. He didn't account for 'road crown' with his toe spec. 3. Don't see any readings from the rear of the car, so this is most likely a tire shop special. A 2-wheel, set the toe and let it go, alignment

@@jessejuliano5336 changing the toe isn’t going to do anything for road crown. Do you even know what road crown is? Do you know what toe is/does? Some vehicles that don’t have “factory adjustments” can be adjusted in other ways. Another thing you can do is tell the customers the steering wheel is there for a reason.

@@Volksoner619 That response is utterly idiotic. Tbe typical rookie clown that gives the car back to the customer with a slight pull to the right and an off-center steering wheel is a clown for a technician. Road crown here in FL is massive because of the torrential rains that are so hard you can't see the emblem at the end of the hood.

Unfortunately this is what people get when they pay for an alignment. This is what we in the automotive repair industry call a "toe and go" or "lazy man's alignment". I see a brand new lower control arm and no caster adjustment. He didn't even bother to do a caster sweep at all. If you notice the top two squares in red with three dashes, that is your caster adjustment windows. Not adjusting caster will cause abnormal tire wear issues along with steering returnability issues, possible vibration, and crucial wear and tare on other steering and suspension components posing serious safety concerns. Camber is in the green but will show different after the caster sweep. Unacceptable...smh

Lol, l'angle de chasse n'est pas réglable sur ce modèle, regardez les triangles, aucun réglages possible... Mesurer l'angle de chasse peut être utile dans le cadre d'une expertise où nous aider à déterminer pourquoi un véhicule tiré à l'accélération et ou au freinage... Étant mécanicien confirmé, celà ne me choque pas. Par contre mettre un parallélisme à 0° alors que l'on a presque 1° de carrossage négatif sur un véhicule en traction, je vous garantie que si le véhicule à du couple, surtout en boîte automatique, vous verrez que les pneus s'useront de l'intérieur en moins de 3 000kms

Went to the same shop 3 times, to get an alignment. Last time it was for a changed rear axle. I had all bolts loose and they told me they couldn't get the rear ones off and didn't even touch the front camber "on bmw it's imbossible to change the front camber" yea sure. Now i have to ride with -2° on the front right and rear right. Still had to pay 90 bucks for an unfinished job

@@kuma7526 If the front camber is out on a BMW you’re likely to have worn/bent parts and/or sagging springs. I’d look into that before anything else. What did you use to read the camber? Did you make sure the vehicle was fully laden when taking the readings? Just asking because I’ve seen DIY’rs do some super hack shit. I love when a customer tells me they did it themselves but they just want me to “check their work” and the shits all fucked up. Now you’re getting charged for inspection, retorque and alignment.
