Hi Howie,
Richards TyrePower in Osborne Park claim to be able to sort out any balance/front-end shake problems with Nissans and have all the latest gee-wizz balancing gear. I've always gone back to them and been happy with the balancing on my Patrols. I've never had a problem with alignment or balance tho. They don't do alignment, tho, I recall.
cheers,
Gerry

Job done, seems fine to me.
The aligner took the time to show me a few things under the car and explained what he did. I thought that was pretty good.
Nothing fell off on the way
home so that's always good too :-)

Big Wheels in Abernethy Road, Forrestfield do the best job around. They do all the big rigs eg Kenworths and have a great name in the industry.
I take the F250 there because of its size but the job they do is excellent. You pay for what you get but they pick up all the little things that a normal wheel alignment place will not.
My last wheel alignment just a week ago, when new tyres were fitted, they picked up that there was stress on the front diff and when they loosened the U bolts it sprung back into place.
The rear springs had a few leaves not lined up so they re aligned them as
well.
All this stuff can happen to a 4WD when twisting and turning over uneven ground, rocks, gullys etc so to have it all picked up in a wheel alignment is excellent.
Previous alignments with them they re cambered with the neccessary shims for the angle of the roads here in Australia and all states have different cambers of roads would you believe.
But they go right into it, not cheap at $210 but
well worth it and you feel the difference.
Cheers
Stewart
