Alignment on '99 Yukon questions - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hi, I am usually on the 60 -66 forum. I recently bought a 2wd Yukon that is wearing tires on the outside. An alignment shop told me that they needed to remove the knockouts on the frame mounted bracket so they could get enough movement to adjust it. They want $150.00 to remove them. Are they telling me the truth? If they are, does the knockout side mirror the slot on the other side of the bracket? Can they actually be knocked out or do they have to be cut? If they have to be cut out, do you drill a hole at each end of the slot and join the holes with a die grinder?
Thanks for your help,
Jackson
