No worries - cheers, i'll have a look.

I was up in Jandakot today and attempted to find Doc's tyre for a check on the wheel alignment just to discount issues with some rotational noise.
Front wheel bearings replaced with Timkens,tyres are Hankook Dynapro 15Kkms.Any way according to 4x4 mob[totally Toyo/Nissan bias!] down the road,they have packed up.
Any one know where their Hunter gear went to or any other Hunter aligners in Perth.

I have been in touch with the distributors and they informed me that Tyrepower Bibra Lake and Tyrepower West Perth, ask for Mal and Adrian respectively,are equipped with the Hunter alignment equipment.

using only the power of google (and therefor no guarantee of accuracy) "Roll Right Tyres" in Balcatta also use hunter - the DSP 600 to be specific.

Getting my alignment done as I type. Moving from 20's to 18's with Compo rims.
On the previous rims and tyres my steering wheel was never straight - pointing to the left but she tracked straight.
Got the same issue with the new rims and tyres if not a little worse with the steering wheel. Any help would be appreciated.

I'd say the type of wheel alignment machine in use has no influence on the results whatsoever. Seeing as the machine heads are a bit detrimental, the calibration intervals are probably the single most important thing. Beissbarth VS. Hunter, really, they're both very expensive, precision machines.
