Where to have rear shims installed - Toyota Yaris Forums

patm · 10-08-2011, 02:44 AM

my rear right toe is out of spec on my 07 Yaris sedan. It seems that shimming is the only way to correct it. Does anyone know of any shops north of boston that are reliable at doing this job. Also, how much is a reasonable charge for his type of job.

Any reputable alignment shop can do it. Perhaps the shop that told you your toe was out??? It's a simple process. Nothing magical.

FWIW, my 4 wheel alignment, including all shims and camber bolts, ran around $250cad at a race shop. The guy sets up winning race cars around southern ontario and the car feels great.
I'm now at -1.5 camber and 0 toe all around.
