Default Alignment in NE Ohio

Can anyone recommend an alignment shop in NE Ohio? I'm on the west side of Cleveland-would like to stay within an hour drive.

Don't know. I would suggest asking if they have a Hunter laser system. That will tell you they are serious about alignments. Dan

You will also want to be sure they have the correct shims to properly adjust caster and camber. I would call around at various places and Chevrolet dealerships in your area. The Chevrolet dealership in town has an awesome Chevrolet master technician that specializes in older vehicles and has been with Chevrolet since 1972. He works on many C4's and is a personal friend of mine. Having someone that knows how to do the alignment properly is a must.

Would that be Firelands Chevy off Rt 2? I’m not that far away from Vermillion.
