All Lined Up: Wheel Alignment Service At Texas Express Lube & Auto

When all of your vehicle’s wheels are lined up exactly with each other, your wheels are in alignment. Hitting a road hazard or even just the normal bumps and bounces of everyday driving in . can cause your truck’s wheels to be out of alignment.

Driving for an extended time in . when your wheels are out of alignment results in uneven tire wear. This is dangerous … and expensive. Worst case scenario, you have a blowout on a crowded Texas freeway. It can also cause premature wear to your suspension system, which can be really expensive to repair. At the very least, you may have to replace your tires years too early.

Here are some alignment basics from Texas Express Lube & Auto:

The first adjustment is called toe or do the wheels point in towards each other or away from each other at the front of the tire.
The next adjustment is called camber or do the wheels tip in or out at the top.
And finally, there is castor. Castor measures the angle where the front axles attach to the vehicle.

The ideal alignment for your truck was designed by its engineers. Alignment service at Texas Express Lube & Auto starts with an inspection of the steering and suspension – to see if anything’s bent or broken. Then your friendly Texas Express Lube & Auto technician will look at tire condition.

From there, the truck is put on an alignment rack and an initial alignment reading is taken. The wheels are then aligned to truck auto makers’s specifications.

Your truck owner’s manual probably has a recommendation for how often your alignment should be checked – usually every couple of years. If you suspect an alignment problem, get it checked at Texas Express Lube & Auto before you suffer expensive tire or suspension damage.
