Plus I can usually find some freebie goodies to throw your way too. And nobody will beat my price on tires. Try me with a pm.


Orem isn't that far from me. I may have to take you up on this soon. :)

Quick question, my car tracks straight, but the steering wheel is tilted slightly to the right. If it's not the alignment that's off, is it possible for something in the steering rack assembly to cause this?

Get under you're car, loosen the collar on the steering shaft and slide it off of the splines and adjust it so that the wheel is straight when the car is going straight, and tighten the collar. Pretty straight forward. Also, thats if you're POSITIVE you have zero toe...
