SUSPENSION:FRONT
FRONT END ALIGNMENT IS OUT, BUT MUST PURCHASE ADDITIONAL KITS TO BE PUT ON BEFORE ALINEMENT CAN BE SET CORRECTLY. SHOULD HAVE BEEN TOLD ABOUT THIS. NOW COST OF REPAIR IS EST $120. MOST PEOPLE CAN NOT AFFORD THAT AT ONE TIME AND WILL DRIVE ON MISALINED FRONT END WHICH CAN BE A BIG SAFTELY ISSUE. *AK
