If you don't mind driving to Metairie , Clearview Auto has a laser alignment system. Call Charlie Horton 504-321-0274 . You can make an appointment and if all it needs is alignment , it will only take an hour. His shop is one of the best I've ever used. He always has a shop full of vettes. Tell him Craig Gifford told you to call.

i talked to Charlie. He doesn't have the caster tools to align my car but says he's never needed it bc he's never seen a C7 whose caster was out of spec. I know mine is bc the left rear wheel isn't centered in the well. I went ahead and bought the caster tools and I gonna bring the car to him next week.

Makes me wonder if this car has been in an accident before. I bought it with 6k miles and was told it was never wrecked. I'm gonna get pissed if I find out differently.

Wow that's concering. That is the reason to bring it to an independent shop.
Charlie to will tell it like it is. Good or bad.
Good luck with the repair.

Pellegrini Performance Group can get you squared away. They have a high end alignment machine and worked on plenty of Vettes. Their collection is also a treat.
