how does that help?
I mean i know that it allows lowered cars to get on it easier, but does it provide for easier access to like upper balljoint camber kits etc... ?

actually yes since there are jacks underneath the lift to lift the car when its up in the air. but i think most alignment racks should have that

i know of only two in-ground alignment racks in miami
1 is at a shop that services normal every day mom and pop cars, kinda like a goodyear, and the dude flat out told me he would not do my car because it was too low. I was like WTF do you have an in-ground alignment rack for?!!?
2 is at a shop called CEC wheels that seems to specialize in exotics and they wanted $350 to align the car.
so im kinda fucked.

we have a hunter machine at cadillac, you can do this with any machine it's just how you set it up. ours is above ground so i have to use tons of boards and it still scrapes. i wish we had one.

R/T Tuning. Theirs isn't an in-ground, but they'll get your car on there, don't worry, and they are pretty much the best at what they do, and alignment is one of the things they specialize in. http://rttuning.com/ali/

Theres a couple down here... But I usually just drag my cars up onto my mates and we do the alignment ourselves... Paranoid when it comes to letting outsiders do it, bad experiences are bad.

me and Vhun used to stretch tires there while forum member scotrod did all the alignments. NTB's corporate people caught on to what was going on at the store and even though we were making all of our money based on cars from stanceworks, dfdubs, honda-tech... NTB did not want that kind of 'image'. so pretty much they brought in new people, got rid of all of us besides vhun, and dont do any type of aftermarket work whatsoever. kinda sucks because they have all the right equipment and they dont use it for anything now.

if you don't go to RT, give me a shout. There is a place down my way that handles all the high end cars in my area. They have 3 alignment racks - 2 of which are in ground. I take all my cars there.
