so today i went in to get my alignment done and they told me i need a camber kit cause if they try and adjust the upper control arm it wont stay put it will slide back and forth has anybody had this issue maybe a pic of this so called kit he wants to charge me 240 for it thats installed and the alignment does this sound right to you guys? thanks!

 

Take it to another shop.

 

Agreed. When I got my alignment done, it was quick, simple an' no "gotchas"

 

I was at my tire shop last year for a state inspection and the mechanic tells me I have a odd wear pattern on my frt tires and I probably need an alignment. I tell him 'I don't think so", but if he thinks it needs to be checked then I'll only pay if it is found to be out of spec. Off to the alignment rack we go and he sets everything up and finds the alignment to be within spec. I hadn't told him I had just rotated the tires and he was looking at the tires off the rear. Besides there was no indication of tire wear other than being spun. He didn't charge me, but I gave him $5 anyway for his effort.There are some good folks out there, but you have to be a little careful.

 

thanks for the info guys just seems a little weird that he told me i need a camber kit has anybody herd of this kinda thing needed for these dodges?

 

no you have metal clips that look like torsion keys up there, they crank that to adjust and it wont slide

hes trying to yank you like youre getting paid

 

thats what i told him he says they they just wont work haha what a scumbag this is a pretty well know place here im gonna go somewhere else tomorrow thanks guys!

 

anybody have a 03 that they have been told this?

 

there is a tool that the FSM calls for, But it isn't really needed, Alignment is easy on these trucks even without it.

 

ya thats what i thought but when he told me that i was like really never herd of needing that!
