[DMCForum] Re: (squirrelly handling)



> Perhaps they didn't do the alignment correctly.

The toe-in on the front & rear is the same and is more than most alignment
shops are used to seeing.  If they didn't know the proper specs then they
might have given it enough toe-in.  This would cause the car to handle
poorly.

> How do you "check" an alignment at home?

You don't.  I have done rough wheel alignments to get it to a shop.  This
involves using a carpenter's chalk line, hooking it to the back of the
rear
wheel and pulling it forward along side the front wheel.  If you hold the
string right then you can make sure that the front alignment is roughly
the
same as the rear.  But this is assuming that the rear is about right.  But
this is just good enough to get it to a shop that has the proper
equipment.
