- If you don't have time to do it right will you have time to do it over?
The first step doing an alignment is to check for loose parts, then check tire pressure, then ride height, then actually check the alignment. If there are any loose parts the process stops until they're replaced. Make sure they're checked properly, too. Not every vehicle is a 69 Impala that you check for vertical movement with a pry bar. If your roads are crowned like ours are, you need 1/2- 3/4 degree caster split to compensate. The first batch of 91 Explorers all pulled right because they came with equal caster on both sides and we had to fix them all. I was told that Michigan doesn't crown the roads.
