Meet the South Kent Alinement Team

Jerry Pastoor South Kent Alignment FounderSouth Kent Alinement was founded in 1972 by Jerry Pastoor…a icon in the industry for years prior to then and after….his knowledge of frame and suspension damage was the top in the West Michigan  area….he passed that on to his son Doug and Son in Law Paul.  They have spent the better part of their lives working for Jerry and buying the business from him in 1998..having over 30 years experience each at South Kent.  They have expanded their services to a complete repair service organization and continue to care for their customers honestly and with the highest standards. Staying up to date in the equipment necessary has always been their goal – having a comfortable customer waiting area is also a high priority.  They are well known in many hot rod clubs, 4×4 off road clubs as the only ones with the knowledge to cater to there special needs.  Their theory is “if it has wheels they can align it“!!  The technicians have been with them for many years and know the expectations of a job going through the doors at South Kent.  Their long time customer loyalty and referrals has kept them busy through these hard economic times.  Our goal is to still be here for many many years to come and are willing to do what it takes to make sure that happens.  Thank you for considering South Kent for your service needs
