if i get an alignment

do they adjust the tie rods and the ball joints?. everything on my car was removed to do a bunch of work, and well now my toes off. one tire will sit straight, and the other points out.

Normally they adjust the tierods. It's the rear that sucks. Need a special tool.

ball joints adjust camber, tie rods adjust toe.

And NO I DON'T have to love FWD, I just have to deal with an easily adjustable kmac kit. ; )

The loss of $200 outweighs the loss of traction on the road.
