Suspension - Steering - Alignment Services
A Vehicle Suspension System - Contributes to Safe Driving
Your mind wanders for a minute and the next thing you know the vehicle you're driving is drifting toward the side of the road. You quickly correct. Something so simple as this scenario could be a warning sign that things aren't right with your vehicle's suspension. Here are a few things to consider:
- Shocks - faulty shocks absorbers can affect your handling around corners. They can also cause safety issues when towing heavy loads. Worn shocks can also contribute to wear and tear on other components on the vehicle.
- Struts - are much like shocks when it comes to road handling. A vehicle may show signs of drifting all over the road. Stopping capabilities can also be hampered when struts are worn.
- Steering - includes rack and pinion systems as well as tie rods and connections which may be loose and cause extreme difficulty in handling.
- Alignment - can be costly on tires by causing extreme unusual wear patterns. This may contribute to tire failure which of course can result in serious accidents.
Standard - Thrust - 4 Wheel Alignments
Standard Alignment
Using the geometric centerline of the vehicle, our tech aligns and adjusts the front wheels of the car.
Thrust Alignment
Every vehicle should get a thrust alignment on a regular interval. The direction the rear tires are pointing is averaged. This average is our reference dictating the alignment of the front wheels. This type of alignment is used with non adjustable rear wheels.
4 Wheel Alignment
Just as it states - all 4 wheels are aligned based upon the front wheels and adjustable rear wheel suspension.
