Also looking at getting this done at National. Can anyone answer the question of whether they do the 2 or 4 wheel alignment? thanks.

no need to have 4 wheel done unless you have adjustable rears and if its pulling or showing abnormal wear

Agree with the grey-suited one. :D

You do need 4 Wheel tracking, although some cars are not adjustable at the rear. I pay £49.95 for 4 Wheel tracking at Elite in Rainham, Essex. You can pay hundreds of pounds for a full works KDS tracking at some BMW dealers.

bend over and have a cv boot cone inserted with no lube.

£50 for tracking done with £8k equipment is the same as a £25 supertrack

its all down to the skill of the mechanic the £8k set up is like a TVR with ABS, traction control and all the other idiot aides. it does everything for the mechanic apart from turn the track rods

with something like a super tracker the mechanic has to use skill and knowledge and simple arithmetic a bit like how a TVR should be with no idiot aides

Anyone had tracking done using the Froude Hofmann equipment? Trying to locate a local garage with this equipment.

Saw one at a (large and busy) garage in Germany last summer, the tracking took about 2 minutes.

It works like this.
