Default Good alignment shop in Northern OC?

ESP keeps kicking off when going onto freeway onramps while making hard slow turns...it gets sort of hairy and feels like I'm going to run into the wall.

Figure I have to get my caster fixed, anyone have any recommendations?

Ogie there is a guy in HB that is off of Gothard just down the street from Golden West College that is real good too. It's across the street from Surf City Skate center, I can find out the name if you need it.

Ok here is the info for the shop in HB. I have heard good things about this shop and people say it is a tad hard to find so google map it. I guess they are in the rear of a industrial complex.


Dave's Frame & Alignment

Sorry just checked the thread, but yes Vodies is the place manager there is Dave he has been there for 30 years. A straighter shooter does not exist, i gaurentee it. I have taken my wifes car to him before and he checked the alignment and ended up just rotating the tires because the allignment was fine cost to me $0.00. I also took my ZJ there and his head tech there straightened my axle housing and installed an offset ball joint when no one else would touch it. cost to me $300.00. I have been going to them since i moved there and they have never let me down. They also do some comercial vehicles and RV's so do not let the fact that the shop is 40years old fool you they know their ^%^*!!!!! Good luck, tell Dave I said hello.

Dave is a great guy I will second that. He took good care of me. I think I need to go see him to get my tires all rotated.
