    Gibbs Auto Service

    Is run by extremely knowledgeable and skilled mechanics.

    To Dave and Shane: Thank you very much for taking care of my Jeep and knowing exactly what the problem was.

    Once I got the thrust angle alignment done my swaying/teatering problem went away!
    Its never the program, always the programmer.

    Definitely a good group. Dave's fixed everything I've taken to him, from ZJ's without reverse, to XJ's abandoned at my house that I needed fixed ASAP. Shane just did a lot of body work on the Corolla too, looks great.

    Never heard of a thrust angle alignment. What's involved and what does it do?

    It makes sure your rear tires are inline with the front tires.

    How do you adjust them on a leaf sprung vehicle if they are not in line? or do you just adjust the front to match the rear?

    I would reccomend Gibbs auto service to anyone, they took care of my inspection and some routine maintenance quickly and for a good price.
    Want unlimited cell service, talk, text and web for $49 a month? Ask me how

    Well he knows I'm coming so I would think you should give him a call and make an appointment.
