Off center which way? Up/down; front/back or in/out.
Your best bet may be to take it to an alignment shop and let them diagnose it. Just tell them you want a 4 wheel alignment(2 wheel is useless on ours) and that you suspect something in the front end is bent. Perhaps you can work out a deal where they could find the problem for you and then realign it once its fixed. Good luck with it and let us know the details |
