Cool stuff Sieg... really like the homemade
adapters for your tools and the fact
you are the alignment shop..
Been learning how to do some of this front
end tuning myself... better than wondering
what the shop really did.. plus you can adjust
it even at the track if you want

Thanks, those are proper plates.

I certainly don't trust the cast plates for heavy loads, thus that steel plate on the press.

I don't trust them for any load... had a buddy on Pirate4x4 take 8 stitches when they let go on his with less than 4t of pressure.

I have no affiliation with SWAG, other than he's a cool vendor with good schtuff.

Love the build.
