Lowered Panel Van

I have lowered my panel van by 70mm, however I am having problems getting someone in sunny South London to carry out the adjustments to the tracking and camber etc. There has been a range of excusses from "not interested" to "its to low to fit on our ramp"
Do any of you know who might be able to do this work or indeed have had it done themselves. I am happy to travel to get a decent job done, ( well within reason! )
Many Thanks for your help
Ian

Front wheels should be zero camber so not too hard to adjust and most garages can do tracking

As stated have adjusted the camber myself, if I remember some where on here it said a 70mm drop would be at the maximum adjustment so took it right out, looks and feel better already, now off to the tyre shop to get the tracking done. :D
