Getting good fuel economy and long lasting tires and less stress on your arms and shoulders starts with a good truck alignment.

Alignment seems to be one of those things we tend to overlook when doing preventative maintenance. When we have to replace tires because of poor alignment this is when we tend to have a little more focus on the problem. Unless there is a hard pull or a shimmy we cannot figure out or live with we tend to ignore it. When we do a pre-trip inspection one can feel the steer tires to determine if an alignment is in the near future. Looking at a tire will also tell you if there is a problem, cupping, river wear, and any irregular wear can be seen. The problem with waiting till you can see it is, once a tire gets into a wear pattern it probably will not stop wearing in that pattern even if you get repairs or an alignment done.
