Yup. All of the big name places won't do it if it is lowered, I had the same problem. Even if they had the specs, I wouldn't trust them to do it anyways beacuse of their initial reluctance. Any old school guy can do it by sight/test driving it. I took mine to a local shop here in Riverside called Jerl's muffler/brakes. An old dude there named Scotty aligned my 5" dropped front end perfectly for $75. It took him about an hour and a half, and he only needed to add 1 shim to each stud to correct the camber.
