Funny story, man breaks into garage. Cant get out for 4 days while owners are on vacation. Sues the homeowner because he was stuck there for 4 days without food or water. Courts award large settlement.....  | |

People will be rushing around trying to get there shit done so they wont have to pay for extra time. That place will be a gong show. Cant wait for the idiot that thinks he can do it themselves in an hour and is stuck with a 3-4 hour bill

Jack stands + jack should run you about $130 for a decent one

What happends when you are in the middle of a job and you realize that you got the wrong part and you can't get it for a day? Do you have to pay for the whole time you are waiting on the part? I would also like to know if they have any insurance.

Holy crap the deals you guys are putting up keep getting better!
Are the alignments DIY as well, or would an on-site tech be dealing with that?
BTW, looking for any P/T shop help? PM me if you are please. Thank you.

lol @ kal tire comment.
if you're doing just front toe definitely a rip off, but if you're doing front and rear camber and toe and caster adjustments, thats definitely an hours work.
ive always felt they should charge base on time not a set price.
if only they'd listen to me.

They took some pictures of it, it'll probably get posted hehe!

We have a mechanical shop 1 block down. So we do alignments, wheel balancing, rotor/drum resurfacing. We also have ON-CAR brake lathe(thats 4 rotors that take 2h to take off). $50 alignment will do you all the adjustable angles(depending on a car), starting from rear camber to front toe.
If some people need to use Mitchell you are welcome to come by the shop before starting to work on your vehicle  Quote:

ill give them credit on this one, ith more DIYers and Condos staring up here in the lowermainland, this is probably the perfect time to start a shop like this and I believe that if (and by if I mean hope) they survive their first year, then the cult following will start pretty quick, add a dyno, hondat and osirus tuning systems, and I feel you could keep busy pretty much all the time, put in a little bar for the "regulars" and it could be a 21st century version of a local hangout (aka malt shop) i'll definitely check this place out the next time I need to do some work on my car, I'm so getting tired of burning my hands on hot headers because my jackstands don't go up high enough Posted via RS Mobile | |

When I first saw this I was like "OMFG this is awesome!!"
Then I wondered "I hope they have tools and mechanics they can rent out for when I myself don't have the tools or expertise"
....
....
Then I was like "wait a minute...."
