How far out?
When you had the laser alignment done, how far out was your alignment?

Mine was 1 3/4 inches, in on one side and out on the other. Mike Loescher of Spyder Comfort did mine and said it had a lifetime guarantee.

How old would you be if you didn't know how old you were?

I don't remember the numbers...
But Ron Netzley aligned mine, and he said that it was "almost" close enough to not need much tinkering...
But one side was toed-out further than the other.

Both times..??
don't remember the figures. Squared Away did it both times but the second does confirm that messing with the rear wheel, changing shocks and front tires does mess with the alignment...

Close counts only in horseshoes and hand grenades!
Artillery lends dignity to what would
otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

On three Spyders, all were toe-out by about 1/8" in 6' - going to slight toe-in fixed tire wear and greatly improved the handling. The shop manuals state the measurement is +/- 3' from axle center line. The LASER alignment systems are a much greater distance (11 to 12'), which translates into higher possible precision.
I did our RS and ST; Mike Loescher, the LASER system inventor, did my F3 at the Deadwood Three Wheel Rally in Aug. The discussion I had with him about steering and alignment was worth more that the wheel alignment.

Come on up - we can Square You Away! I doubt car equipment would work properly. Las Vegas is not too far, and as good as an excuse as any to visit our little city! Joe
