Lost alignment after changing lower control arm?
Re: Lost alignment after changing lower control arm?
Well, changed everything (lower control arms, ball joints, center link), got an alignment at the shop, and boy am I happy, straight as an arrow, corners well... Did not even need the camber kit.
No idea how the car is supposed to handle when it is new, since I've had it for only two years, all I can tell is that is is better than it ever was since I've had it.
But of course the cracking noise is still there, so although all of this was needed and it wasn't a waste of time, I am kind of back to square one

Set your car model to a 2004 Mercedes SLK320 and you are good to go.
All Lemforder.
There are cheaper options out there, but for parts that keep the wheels attached to the car, I was not going to cheap out.
