The guy at the counter didn't know what I was talking about, called his manager and set up apt for this evening. Hopefully they can figure out what they did wrong. I'm guessing maybe they tried to adjust front camber and got something out of wack??
I would not be taking it to any wheel works, Firestone, pronouns etc. those places typically employ low level techs and tire changers. The guy not even knowing what bump steer is should be your first sign you are at the wrong place. Those places are set up to do mass production of quick alignment on Oem spec vehicles and tires. Not what you need or want with all the mods to the suspension you did. You need to find yourself a shop that sets up those kind of cars, talk to the guys at the track if any are around you and they will most likely know a shop that is more familiar with that type of work, probably does a lot of porches and those types of cars so pricing will reflect that but having it done right the first time is worth the price rather than dealing with armatures.
