The 1987 Cadillac Brougham: Wheel alignment
Need a wheel alignment for your 1987 Cadillac Brougham? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. Hitting a pothole hard can knock the wheels out of line.
Before the shop sees your Brougham
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Under the hood: the 5.0L 8-cylinder and rear-wheel drive.
What to send us
You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job.
Your rental while you wait
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Small things that help
Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair. Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive.
Getting a clear quote
Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used.

Need a rental too? Add it to the same request.
