So I'm installing the BMR rear cradle lockout kit and noticed my cradle isn't centered at all from the factory so I plan on getting an alignment. The only place I know of around me that does alignments are Sears and Les Schwab. Is it fairly intuitive for the shop to figure out how to align the rear end of the new Mustangs. I'd hate to bring it in there and find out they don't do the rear end. I'll be calling them this week. Just wondering if any of you had have problems with shops figuring out how to align our cars properly. Thanks.

Thanks. Had less than stellar results when taking other vehicles into shops. Hoping an alignment is simple enough.

I have had some of the same issues. My last sports car was to low and they could not get on service ramps, they would use floor jacks and always bend the fenders since they never jacked from the proper place. That being said make sure they put the lift feet in the proper locations.

my experience, on eibach sportlines, was that it was fairly difficult for them to get the alignment right, even at an alignment specialty shop. between dealing with the bmr toe rods and them not knowing where/how to adjust the rear camber... it took a few tries to get it right..
