Okay,
long story short...I made a bonehead manouvere and threw my alignment outta whack. It pulls to the right pretty good now <_< and the steering wheel is nicely off-center.... <_<
Can anyone tell me what is a reasonable cost/time to get my car re-aligned?!?

However, your car is lowered, so take it to a real shop.

my car seems out of spec from the factory :( pulling off the front wheels when i was doing the brakes. i realized how badly the inner part of my tires are worn :(
i guess when i get my springs installed its time for some camber bolts.

If your car is pulling hard to one side with the steering off center you've got damage. Knocking the toe out will not cause it to pull too much, it will knock the wheel off center though. pulling hard is usually a combination of issues. Usually caused by bent stuff. Control arm, frame, strut etc. It's not gonna cost only 50 bux.

Lets be clear, its not pulling hard...like I can let go of the wheel and it lightly drifts,,but when it does it's to the right only...

dont pay any more then $70.
The shop I go through charges a bit more but all the guys there actually drive modified cars and no what there doing. I know Ford only charges $35 but they wont touch my car.
