Vehicle Alignment Services

Impacts of Alignment on Safety and Operating Costs

Vehicle alignment is a major area of concern because of its direct implications on the life of tires, fuel economy, and safety. Alignment is often thought of in connection with the steer axles only. However, it has been recognized for some time that the rear axles on a tractor also must be properly aligned, and that “tractor and trailer” should be aligned for optimal performance. Misalignment can cause a variety of problems, including irregular tire wear, uneven braking, fuel economy loss, and vehicle vibration.
Tire Wear:
Various types of misalignment cause tires to “scrub” and oppose each other. Excessive and/or uneven tire wear is known to reduce control of steering inputs, particularly on low-friction surfaces (e.g., wet pavement), thus compromising the operator’s ability to execute quick, precise maneuvers.
Fuel Economy:
Misalignment between front and rear axles on a tractor, and/or between the tractor and trailer units themselves (e.g. “dog-tracking”), causes the engine to work harder because rolling resistance is increased-and fuel economy suffers.
Vehicle Vibration:
Misalignment conditions can often lead to higher-than-normal vibration levels in the steering wheel and/or operator’s seat. The result can be an uncomfortable ride that contributes to driver discomfort, muscular fatigue, and stress. Such vibration can also increase wear on suspension and chassis components.

Our 2015 up-to-date Hunter Engineering laser alignment system supports over 60 different axle configurations and is loaded with all OEM alignment specifications. Our Hunter Trained & Certified technicians can diagnose & correct even the most complex alignment issues.
