I've been to 2 different alignment shops and both have told me that they can't align our cars without some kind of "spanner" bar to keep the front wheels lined up. The MB dealer I deal with charges $147.50 for a 4-wheel alignment... Is this true? My front tires are getting killed by huge tow out... I'm going to have to have them remounted on the opposite wheels as it is to get any life out of them. The tread also has that funny "feathered" wear pattern typical of Tow issues...

Sorry for the thread hijack, even though it is related.
