Heavy-Duty Truck Alignments

Heavy Duty Truck Wheel Alignment Services

Are you scheduling regular wheel alignments for your heavy duty trucks? If you're in Mason City, IA, Clear Lake, IA, Nora Springs, IA, or the surrounding areas, you can take advantage of our heavy duty wheel alignment service. In the transportation industry, the two highest operating expenses are fuel and tires. While fuel consumption can be difficult to control, scheduling routine heavy duty truck alignments can reduce your overall operating costs by keeping your tires pointed straight.

Our wheel alignment experts understand all scenarios and symptoms of misalignment on heavy duty trucks. Our state-of-the-art truck wheel alignment equipment quickly and efficiently locates misalignment issues. All computerized wheel balancers are operated by highly trained mechanics.

The Benefits of Big Truck Alignments

Keeping up on wheel maintenance has its perks. Did you know:

• Wheel alignments are designed to realign wheels to a straighter roll position on the road for less roll resistance. Less roll resistance means less friction, and ultimately, better fuel economy, tire life, component wear, and decreased driver fatigue.
• Front end alignments on heavy duty trucks are especially important since the back wheels on the tandem axles have to follow in their tracks. Misaligned tandem axles will cause the truck to “thrust” or “scrub,” resulting in a vehicle being pushed out of straight line travel. Every service begins with a front end alignment and extends to all tandem axles.
• If your drivers complain of fighting the wheel, or the truck pulling to the side, then a semi-truck alignment service is a necessary procedure to counteract these effects of misaligned wheels.
