Recommended Alignment Shop in MA

Hi,

I need to bring my R53 in for an alignment. Anyone have recommendations for a competent shop in eastern MA?

Thanks!

Scroll down to the Massachusetts section of this link and there is a list of independent shops that may be helpful. Good luck.

Contact Pete or John at Greasy's Garage; they don't do alignments at their shop (Worcester), but have a guy that they refer their customers to.

That said, I just had Pete install a new set of struts a couple of weekends ago, and then took my R53 to Stansfield Tire here in Lowell for an alignment yesterday.

What part of MA are you in?

My last alignment was done by the place Greasy's uses in Worcestor, but I don't want to go back there since the alignment is off after only a few thousand miles (car pulls to the left).

I am near Concord MA, so Lowell would not be too far to go for a reputable shop. I will keep it in mind.

Thanks.

Roads out your way could have been a/the contributing factor, but I would call Greasy's and see if the alignment shop who performed the work is good for it. They do plenty of MINI's there.
