Can anyone take a look at my alignment sheet and tell me what they think? I tried finding factory specs online but no luck, still looking. This is for my 03 maxima se with 17 inch tires. I attached the results of the alignment.

Check out pages 14 and 26 of the FSM under SU.pdf for alignment specs.

Looks like Pep Boys did a poor job since things are still in the red post-alignment. The rear ends on our cars lack adjustable points due to the solid axle. The toe on the RR is out of spec so that means something's bent/damaged.

EDIT: NmexMax beat me to it

 

Not so much though, I just posted pics, but you elaborated nicely. Couldn't have said it better myself

 

I just had control arms and a left tie rod end replaced in the front and got new tires so I thought I would go in and get it done, had some wheel squeek and bouncing skipping of the tires, it's riding alot better now but I thought I would be closer to spec for a $110 alignment! Mechanic at the shop said everything else up front looks "ok" but at 165k miles it rides good but I still feel like there is some play up there... Do you think these results are more from worn parts or a poor alignment?

So does that mean the rear axle is bent since there is nothing to adjust or?

Thanks for the replies and insight. My maxima has some wear but its my favorite car of all time so I been working on it, used to be the old chevy caprice ha!

 

Don't let them do that to you. Always tell them ONLY the front. I pay about 45-48$ for mine and they still report what the rear looks like, but since it's not adjustable, they don't do anything.

 

Im in Chicago, I called all over. Some guys tried lieing saying they might have to adjust the back but i busted em out on the solid beam rear axle... One guy hung up on me for askin for 2 wheel and said its a 35k machine... NTB guy told me if i know so much do my own alignment lol....

The firestone up here by me is a deathtrap so i figured id try pep boys.
Got quotes of 90-140 depending on where i called!

After all the money in repairs and new tires i didnt want to ruin em drivin with a messed up alignment. Juts not sure where to go from here to get it closer to spec now.

 

With the alignment readings before they did anything, your tires should have been showing some nasty wear. I'm wondering if they didn't get the adapters that go on the wheels seated correctly. While it will cost you more money, you should consider taking the car to another place for an alignment.

If it turns out that PEP boys were correct, you may want to talk to a collision place that does frame alignment and see what they recommend.

 

Well my tires were trashed so I bought new ones all the way around after they replaced both control arms and the left tie rod end.


So it was brand new tires when they did the alignment.

 

So in what way were the tires "trashed"? Were they worn out on one edge, or were they showing sign of cupping or scrubbing or were they just worn out from lots of miles?

 

They were way passed needing replaced. Extremely worn and uneven. especially on outside edges.

I got the car from a kid that went to jail and had it sitting in a corn field for a year, got it running and had my family using it downstate for about a year before just got it back. So it was ran a lot without nothing going into it.

Looks like I got some more work to do!
