3dr Body Shell Straightening & Alignment Jig
Hello All
Looking for a recommendation of somewhere that can check and re-align the body shell of my 3dr race car. I have searched the forums but cannot find anyone who I think might have the correct alignment data available and has experience with repairs to the 3dr shell. Not a major crash repair, but took a knock to one of the ARB bracket mounts and want to get it checked and everything back to where it should be. I'm based in the midlands but happy to travel in order to get it done right.

Thanks for that info. Using the Spanesi recommendation I have found a few different types of jigs including Car-o-liner. A quick search has come up with a few options including:

Strange that all the basic searches I tried on the web, they never came up despite the obvious website name.

ARB
if you know the other side is correct simple measuring using datum points should be able to show if it is aligned correctly or not...or another member on here with a known straight car could let you measure against it...is it front or rear? if front any great difference would show up on a basic check surely[set back etc]
