***Update/Correction to Caster Measurement***: @3:53 you rotate the gauge to make the bubble level. Then press "zero" to zero out the gauge. Then at @4:01 you need to re-level the bubble before reading the caster. Special thanks goes to @lizardking8388 for bringing this detail to my attention in the comments.

Wheel alignment should be checked anytime steering or suspension parts are replaced, if the vehicle hits a tooth-shaking bump or if the vehicle is involved in a collision. Professional alignments are over $100 due to $7-15K cost of highly sofisticated alignment equipment, shop time and the value of a professional technician. However, many DIYers have the skills to perform an alignment themselves. AutoSolo develops precision wheel alignment tools specifically for the DIY community. The wheel alignment turn plates, wheel clamp and gauges demonstrated in this video measure "Caster" and "Camber" which are important for tire wear and handling.
