Default Wheel Alignment/Geo...

Reading it's good to get the alignment/geo set on the car...? Also to get the bushes copper greased...? Which bushes may give issues further down the line...?

Check the FAQ, there's a lot of info about it.

There's 3 bolts on each front wheel and 2 on each back.
That's 10 in total.

For the difference in cost between doing a few of them or doing all of them if I were you I'd get all of them done now.

Do them now.
Bushes have been known to seize on a 6 month old car.
It is the bolts that get dunked in copper slip grease and worked into the bushes.


You only need to have this done once every 5 years or so.

IME, and having read most of the bush threads, the rear camber, and caster adjusters are the ones most likely to seize
