Steering geometry check in Glasgow?
« on: 13 November 2010, 15:40:36 »

Do any oofers know of a "reliable" place in or near Glasgow that can do proper geometric checks/four wheel tracking.   I have been to Quack F*t in Paisley and F*rmers in Hillington both of whom have "corrected" each others settings and whose work fubarred my track rod ends and tyres.   I have fitted new tie rods and tyyres and need my tracking etc doing properly - surely in a city the size of Glasgow there is someone who can do the job!!!

Cheaper to get brand new tyres for front than do the round trip...............and if you get there the guy will probably say "can't do it mate your wishbone bushes/track rod ends/steering idler/ are fubared >:("
