Northwest Chassis has been known to do a good job with alignments on dubs..... Are you going to pay to do it twice?

I guess you could eye ball it. That's what I have been doing on the '60. Its a pain in the ass(Because jacking up a slammed car sucks) but doing the actual adjustments are easy. If you are way off you can chew up a set of tires fast. All you can really adjust is the tie rods in the front. Camber is set from the factory, and you wont need castor shims unless your jacked up in the rear.

I think Ben is pretty good at alignments, you could ask him. I brought my 68 to a firestone on 1960 and they aligned it no problem.
