    Whats the problem? All they have to do is hook the laser pointer on the rear wheels, the alignment chart on the fronts and adjust the steering until it's within spec.
    The rear wheels are fixed in place so it's just the fronts that need sorting. I don't remember Sufs having four wheel steering or multi-link rear suspension with upper and lower wishbones.
    I get mine done in a small independant garage for 20 quid and it's spot on.

      because of the front impact, its given the front passenger wheel negative camber

        They should still be able to tell you what needs fixing/replacing to put it right though.
        What the hell is wrong with the work ethic in this country? Everywhere you go it seems to be, suck the teeth, quote stupid prices or say "It can't be done mate"

          yeah i know but what can you do except go elsewhere...
          if they dont want to, or cant work out how to but try anyway - then you get a crap job done.

          now i need to tow my car to the next place!

            To be given the same attitude?
            Make sure you phone them first and ask if they know what a surf/4Runner is.

                We do 4 wheel alignment at work but it can only be adjusted on double wishbone cars so the rear reading is taken but ignored on all beamed cars as the rear is fixed.

                Got mine done for £20, no problems.
