Mobile truck wheel alignments in Northland
WHAT IS WHEEL ALIGNMENT?
A wheel alignment is a mechanical adjustment of your suspension system to ensure that your wheels are in the correct position. It can also be called tracking or tyre alignment. Wheel alignments are important because wheels that are out of alignment can cause issues such as making your tyres wear out quickly or unevenly and lead to a less pleasant experience of driving your vehicle.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU GET AN ALIGNMENT?
There is no set formula for how often your vehicle needs an alignment – It all depends on your normal driving conditions and habits. As a general rule all heavy vehicles driving in good conditions and on even roads should have their alignment completed every 25000km or 6 months, however driving on more rugged and less than normal terrains the alignment should be completed more frequently.
Regardless of when the last alignment was completed, you will want to realign after replacing tyres, replacing parts of the steering or suspension system, or after driving incidents like hard blows to the wheel.
