- Driver fatigue and driver retention issues
- Premature suspension component wear
PC Mechanical Inc. recommends a minimum of two to three alignments per year or every 50,000 to 60,000 miles as part of the average vehicle’s preventive maintenance program. See PC Mechanical Inc. today to save time and money with our expert alignment service.
How does Wheel Alignment work?
First, the technician pulls the specification and tolerances for the specific vehicle through an extensive database of heavy-duty vehicles. Electronic sensors measure alignment angles on each wheel. The measurements are compared to the specifications and the adjustments are made. The technician will also inspect for worn or defective parts.
This system is able to correctly identify “problem” conditions, such as wheel runout – often due to bent or distorted rims and wheel and axle offset. Tandem axle or trailer axle setback can also be identified and corrected.
