I need to get a front end alignment on my XJ. I fear going anywhere as a "walk-in" since it has a mild (2" lift), and I flat-tow it behind my motorhome. I don't know if factory specs would apply, or I need someone who can think outside the book.
Can anyone recommend an alignment shop?

I wound up going to Firestone. They offer lifetime alignment. It's like $160, but is good for life on the vehicle. I even asked if I swapped tie-rods tomorrw, could I bring it back. They said "Yup, bring it back, it's covered"

I'm a mechanic with the Mini division of Princeton BMW, we get $125/hr. and 2 hrs. for an alignment, so that's a good deal, esp. the lifetime part.
