[s-cars] subframe alignment

[northrup]

try lookin for collision information.  Autobody shops often have this 
information on tap, and you can sometimes ask to see the books. 

usually there are quite a few measurements displayed.   There may also be 
a seperate collision bently publication, but i've never looked for one.

Manuals are often offered in 3 types: Shop manual, electronic trouble 
shooting manual, and body repair manual.   The latter sometime has the 
information you are after.  If not, then try the autobody shop.
