1955 alignment

[alzink]

having difficulty finding a place to get my 55 aligned.
apparently the new equipment doesn't work because the wheels are too far inside the fenders. Don't expect anyone would know of a place near me in New Hampshire but you may have some general leads as to how to search
Thanks

Maybe try a local restoration shop mine did an old school alignment on my 55 Fleetwood.

I also could not find a local regular shop to do mine. Subsequently, I found a truck alignment place that could do it. They are the ones that did my '56. Clay/Lexi

I was going to suggest a truck alignment shop. I got my brake drums turned in a truck brake shop. Modern trucks have 50s Cadillac sized parts😁

I would ask any classic car dealers in your area for suggestions on who they use.

This may sound silly to you, BUT check you local high school or college auto shop, they may have the equipment and if you gave the specs from shop manual, they would be eager to teach students how to perform old school alignments.

Just my 2-cents

I have heard that the use of modern radial tires requires modification from the alignment specs in the manual to make it track straight.

The main thing is to reduce the Toe-in measurement to -1/6".
