Alignment Check

FREE

We provide all alignment checks for free at our location. If your truck doesn't need an alignment, we won't charge.

Why should I worry about my New truck's alignment?

Studies have shown that 80% of new trucks are out of alignment straight from the factory. That is why manufacturers recommend that an alignment check be done at 15,000 miles. With your busy schedule and the tight margins in today's industry, this is not feasible for most truck operators.

​

That is why we are Driven By Change. Patridge Commercial Alignments provides your vehicle's first alignment check absolutely free. If your truck doesn't need an alignment, we won't charge.

​

Unlike most alignment companies, we recommend an alignment check when your truck is new and a follow-up alignment check when your truck has abnormal tire wear, handling issues and when suspension or steering components are replaced.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • How long should a Patridge Commercial Alignment on a semi truck last?

    A Patridge Commercial Alignment should last in excess of 175,000 miles in most regional & long-haul applications, after the initial and post-delivery check. This calculation excludes accidents, suspension component replacement, and damage due to misuse of the vehicle.

  • Do all alignment services provide a precision alignment?

    Not all alignments performed are created equal. Depending on the alignment service, equipment used, process, and experience of the technician, the alignment may or may not give your truck the tire performance and handling needed to give you the tire wear expected.  

  • How long should the tires on a semi truck last?

    With a Patridge Commercial Alignment, your tires should last in excess of 175,000 miles in most regional and long-haul applications with maintenance.

  • How often should you get a three axle alignment check on your semi truck?

    Patridge Commercial Alignment provides a free initial alignment check and periodic alignment checks for $65.00 ea.


    PERIODIC ALIGNMENT CHECKS - An aggressive alignment preventative maintenance program should include the following periodic checks:

    ​

    1. Upon delivery of new vehicles. Even though OEMs make a concerted effort to properly align vehicles at the factory, shifting and settling can occur during delivery. Camber and caster may not change much, but toe and tandem axle parallelism may change sufficiently to set up undesirable tire wear patterns if not corrected upon receipt.


    2. At the first maintenance check. Post-break-in alignment checks should be done at 15,000 miles and when new steer tires are installed or suspension components are replaced. If shifting and settling did not occur during delivery, they may occur during the first few thousand miles of operation. Many OEMs recommend verification of torque on suspension/frame components after a few thousand miles of operation. A thorough alignment check should be made during this inspection (after torque verification). Consideration should be given to different torque requirements on metric and standard bolts.


    3. When new steer tires are installed or suspension components are replaced. The steer tires coming out of service can tell a story of good or bad alignment. With this feedback, an alignment program can continue to improve. Without feedback, the best an alignment program can do is stay at its current level.


    4. When tire wear indicates a concern. “Reading” tire wear can help identify alignment issues. Unfortunately, correcting the alignment does not necessarily correct the tire wear pattern once an undesirable wear pattern has been established. 

  • How do you check alignment on a semi truck?

    Checking alignment in an "As Driven" condition is a truly accurate way to check alignment.
