Signs Your Semi-Truck Needs an Alignment

Semi-Truck Alignment FAQs
Proper alignment reduces wear on critical components like tires, suspension, and steering systems. Misalignment increases fuel consumption and axle stress—raising lifetime costs.
Axle alignment squares axles to each other and the frame; wheel alignment sets toe, camber and caster for each wheel. You need both for stability and tire longevity.
Yes. Misalignment often causes steering or chassis vibration and higher road noise due to uneven tire contact.
Uneven or shifting loads change suspension geometry and can push the vehicle out of alignment. Fleets with variable loads should increase inspection frequency.
Modern shops use computerized laser/camera systems (e.g., Hunter) to measure and correct angles within fractions of a degree.
Correct alignment reduces rolling resistance by keeping wheels parallel and true—often saving up to ~10% in fuel under typical conditions.
