Looking for recommendations for a garage in West Yorks who can set the tracking and camber on my MK1 after having coilovers fitted.

Want to avoid kwik fit and the like as would prefer to have someone who knows thier way round the older stuff.

Cheers

FYI… Kwik fit and most normal tyre places can't do camber angle as they don't have the kit.

That was my thoughts also, after a place that's familiar with setup on a mk1 what with the camber bolts and adjustment on only one side 🙂

It's worth making sure your steering rack is centralised before taking it anywhere.
 lift the front of the car and make sure it's the same amount of steering lock from straight ahead to full lock left and right.
If not remove the steering wheel and adjust its location.
