So, the road force balance can only be done at the dealer? Or should I make sure Firestone has the equipment and does it?

For the alignment I though the camber needed to be done as well when suspension work is done? Or is that fixed? I did mark the eccentric washers so they will be going back in the same way but not sure how to confirm they are how they need to be. Thanks.
