Got my alignment done! Fixed my bumpsteer!

I had a second alignment done in 6 months yesterday. This time I had it done by a friends shop that I do business with on a regular basis. I advised him that I had some bump-steer condition and asked them to check the entire front end for any loose components. The last time I got the alignment done, the car came back worse than before I took it. My steering wheel was off center which they said they couldnt fix and the car pulled to the left. Frustrating. This time, my buddy told me that the front end seemed tight and was torqued to spec. They also told me that the toe and tie rods were way out which could cause the bump-steer. I was skeptical until I drove home last night. I could tell before I left my parking lot that the steering felt tighter with less play. Hopefully this cured my loose front end woes.... I was going to order a steering rack and struts as a last resort!

A good alignment is definately worth its weight in gold!
