Dealer alignments

I'm getting my steering rack repaired while I'm in for major 90k/timing belt service done at the dealer (Santa Cruz, because I trust them more than any other dealer in the south bay area). Because of the steering change, they will need to do an alignment.

What are people's experiences with alignments? Have they tried hard enough to do more than just a "green zone" alignment?

I specifically go to Auto Innovations, go for 0 toe all around, and max neg even front camber. I have 2nd camber bolts in the front, and camber bolts in the rear.

anyone get good alignments out of the dealer?

Didn't know they had a rack.

I would have guessed that they'd send you down to 7th street for an alignment. Can't remember the name of the place.

Just as Mark or whoever is helping you out about it.

My guess is that it'll be more expensive and they'll only do factory spec. But I'm sure they'll do a good job.
