The reason being, Carls aligner was in my shop, and you're not allowed in. And maybe the fact Carl respected that, speaks volumes.

lol..the joke's on you, actually.

I love my car. Buy your own

Ive only met him once, we would have had to have got on very well If I were. So the answer is no for me. Thought you might be seeing you started the second thread.  :D

I don't really know the exact schedule. Think Carl does his every 18mths or so, might even be on the number of times the machine has been used as per the counter on the machine.

Calibration is not actually scheduled.

They recommend annual service/check.

But, drops and knock instigate checks.

Luckily for carl, I have a set of dunlop gauges AND string bars for race cars, as getting the machines calibrated has been a problem for a long term.

I checked all the jobs I used carls machine for, for toe, as it was troublesome.

Now Carl has moved into his shared shop in coburg, he'll need to be on top of things.

No doubt peepee wont post what he knows, but he knows the issues, or at least, I think he does.
