Proper alignment is critical for truck stability, tire life, and preventing costly suspension wear. Our shop provides precision 3-axle truck alignment and 2-axle trailer alignment using the Hunter Heavy-Duty Alignment System, one of the most trusted and accurate systems in the industry.
Truck & Trailer Alignments
Truck 3-Axle Alignment
Our certified technicians use the Hunter alignment system to make precise axle adjustments, helping your truck track straight and perform the way it should.
3-Axle Alignment Includes:
- Full steering and suspension inspection
- Tread wear and tire condition review
- Drive axle thrust angle correction

A correctly aligned 3-axle truck can help lower fuel costs, improve handling, and get more life out of your tires.

Trailer alignment shifts over time from loaded miles, rough pavement, and daily use. Our Hunter-guided process helps bring the axles back into proper position, improve tracking, and reduce scrub that shortens tire life.
2-Axle Trailer Alignment Includes:
- Full suspension inspection
- Thrust angle correction
- Tire wear and feathering review
With Hunter-guided precision, your trailer follows more cleanly and puts less unnecessary strain on the tractor.

Frequently asked questions
Common signs include uneven tire wear, pulling to one side, an off-center steering wheel, vibration, wandering at highway speeds, or reduced fuel efficiency. If your truck does not track straight, alignment issues may already be affecting tire life, handling, and operating costs.
A full alignment is commonly recommended every 50,000 to 70,000 miles, at least once a year, when installing new tires, or after suspension repairs. Trucks running rough routes or carrying heavy loads may need alignment checks sooner than expected.
Trailer alignment affects tire wear, tracking, and how the trailer follows behind the tractor. When alignment is off, tires can scrub, wear faster, and create extra strain on the equipment. Proper alignment helps improve stability and reduce avoidable tire replacement costs.
Yes. When axles are out of alignment, the truck or trailer creates more rolling resistance, which makes the engine work harder. That added strain can reduce fuel efficiency over time, especially on long routes, and increase operating costs across the fleet.
Yes. Any repair involving suspension or steering components can change alignment settings. Checking alignment afterward helps confirm everything is tracking properly, prevents premature tire wear, and makes sure the truck or trailer is handling the way it should on the road.
