Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Anyone know anywhere around Tallaght that does tracking? I need the rear wheels tracked as they're a bit out (i changed the bushings last week).

    The place up beside the square only does the front wheels or something, i need the back ones done.

    Any ideas?
    And how much? Need it done before te nCT on wednesday

    What type of car is it? On a lot of FWD cars you can't adjust the rear tracking, changing the rear bushes and having good shocks determines alignment. RWD is different however.

    Edit, old thread on 4 wheel alignment:

    Also in my experience only use Kwik fit or fast fit if you don't mind the wheel being crooked afterwards.

    The only experience of this I have is a mk4 golf with torsion bar rear suspension. It ripped up a rear tyre but that was down to one of the shocks being gone. I thought that it was on of the trailing arm bushes but these were fine.

    I don't know if you can adjust the tracking on the rear axle of a 147 however.

    Sorry if this is no help, these seem to be the guys for alignment anyway:
