Subject:Alignment, Anyone out there?

Hi friends, 

        I brought my van in for alignment to the closest shop.  They are nice guys, but skills are questionable. 

        After recent work van was pulling slightly to the right. 

After alignment, the same. 

Also, shop noticed that when stepping on the brakes van pulled to the right.  

They didn’t charge me for the alignment yet.  They said drive it and come back in a week and we can try to adjust. 

They also said, they thought the pulling when brakes applied was a bad brake hose on the caliper, but I know these were new stainlesss about 5 years ago. 

My suspicion is I will need to be on the search for an alignment sho.  

Any tips on alignments or link to specs.

Also, Friend on this list is looking at a write up by Chris at T3.  They plan to learn how to check and likely adjust alignment using the procedures.  I’ve got fingers crossed this works, And, I can take advantage of their new skills!
