After reading the posts about the need to use a spreader bar to correctly set the toe-in, can anyone direct me to a shop in Fairfax County Virginia?

Mark

The only time a spreader bar maks a difference is when the front end componets are worn & there is a lot of play!

AT dealer I have done thousands of alignments & as long as the front end is tight there isn't 1MM difference of toe-in change, We have 2 Hunter factory computer alignment machines.

I'd definitely have to agree with Doc. I even did it scientifically for this article: http://www.babcox.com/editorial/ic/ic40232.htm
