Default Alignment advice

I purchased my 2014 Z51 a few months ago. It has had a slight pull to the right since I bought it, so I want to take it in for an alignment. I do not track the car, so something that is appropriate for street use is my goal. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I don't want to go to the shop without awareness on what they should be doing.

https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...r-base-c7.html is one of many threads on alignment specifications on the forum. You can also google alignment specifications for a c7 Corette. Base and Z51 are the same specification. Ask local Corvette club for reccomendtions on where to get done as a special rear susoension alignment dool is required..

Make sure that they can set the rear caster.
