Semi Truck Alignment

Bauer Built Tire and Service offers affordable solutions, including commercial vehicle alignment services, to optimize your fleet operations.

Our team of professionals has comprehensive knowledge and extensive hands-on experience to align your semi truck wheels precisely and efficiently.

Whis is Semi Truck Alignment Important?

Proper wheel alignment is key to productivity and preventing expensive repairs. Correctly adjusting your truck’s wheels and axles helps protect mechanical elements from unnecessary wear and tear. That can go a long way toward keeping your drivers safe and reducing the risk of mechanical failure on the road.

Benefits of Semi Truck Alignment

Enhanced Fuel Efficiency

Instead of rolling smoothly, misaligned tires cause rolling resistance and require more fuel to operate. Regular alignments ensure your wheels are running at peak efficiency, which can reduce your fuel consumption and help you save money.

Reduced Tire Wear

Your truck’s tires can wear unevenly if they’re misaligned. That can reduce their lifespan, requiring you to purchase new tires more frequently. Our technicians restore correct alignment to your steering and suspension to reduce tire damage and increase service life.

Less Expensive Repairs

Driving with your tires out of alignment can damage your semi’s suspension, steering and other components. Alignment allows you to keep your commercial fleet in top shape so you can save money on repairs.

Improved Safety

Alignment helps your semi-truck to be in its best driving shape, thus helping you prevent unforeseen emergencies or accidents caused by out-of-control wheels and damaged tires.

What to Expect from Our Semi Truck Alignment Service

Precision Alignments

Ensuring your truck’s wheels are perpendicular to the ground and parallel to each other allows them to operate in sync. Our service technicians use computerized equipment to make precision camber, caster and toe adjustments.

Comprehensive Inspections

We begin our alignment service by reviewing the maintenance and repair history of your commercial vehicle. Driver input also provides us with the insight we need to make necessary adjustments. Our service techs conduct visual inspections of tread depth, suspension, steering components, bushings and joints. Our process includes laser alignment technology to ensure precision alignment.

Timely Service

Our semi truck alignment service takes between one to three hours to complete. The length of service depends on the condition of your vehicle, axle configuration, customer-specific requirements and post-alignment tests.

Detailed Reports

Our comprehensive post-alignment inspections include initial inspection findings, technician information, alignment measurements and adjustment details. We also supply other diagnostic data on the condition and function of your wheels and axles to prevent future misalignment.

Follow-Up Support

Preventative maintenance can help you optimize fleet performance and that includes scheduling follow-up alignment service. We maintain thorough service records to monitor the progress and improvement of different mechanical issues associated with commercial alignment.

Warranty Coverage

Our warranty for heavy-duty truck commercial alignment is 90 days.

FAQs

Your truck’s mileage and usage will influence how often you should schedule a commercial alignment. You may need to schedule service more frequently if you drive over rough roads and harsh conditions regularly. Generally, you should get your alignment checked every 50,000 to 60,000 miles.
A commercial alignment can take a few hours depending on the state of the vehicle, inspection process, type of technology and equipment and post-alignment assessment. Do you provide onsite alignment services for semi trucks?
Hitting a pothole, curb or debris can throw your vehicle’s alignment off. Extreme heat and cold can affect the metal components of your suspension. Precipitation may result in rust or corrosion that could contribute to alignment issues.
