Why Proper Wheel Alignment is Crucial for Diesel Trucks and Fleets
Truck and trailer alignment is an essential aspect of vehicle maintenance that should never be overlooked. Proper alignment plays a vital role in enhancing vehicle stability, improving fuel efficiency, and prolonging tire life. Misaligned trucks and trailers can lead to uneven tire wear, poor handling, and increased fuel consumption, ultimately affecting your fleet's overall performance and profitability. Regular alignment checks and adjustments at Fleet Master Truck & Trailer Repair can help prevent these issues and keep your fleet running smoothly.
Consistent alignment maintenance is especially important for long-haul and regional fleets that operate under varying load conditions and road surfaces. Whether it’s a Class 8 truck or a multi-axle trailer, precise alignment ensures every tire is making proper road contact, which translates into measurable savings and increased safety.

At Fleet Master Truck & Trailer Repair, we understand the importance of maintaining proper alignment for diesel trucks and fleets. Our wide range of alignment services is designed to meet the specific needs of your vehicles, ensuring their optimal performance and safety.
Computerized Wheel Alignment
Our computerized wheel alignment service uses advanced technology to measure and adjust your truck's wheel angles accurately. This precision ensures that your wheels align according to the manufacturer's specifications, reducing tire wear, improving fuel efficiency, and enhancing handling.
We service both front-end and total vehicle alignments, offering solutions for steer axles, drive axles, and multi-axle trailer systems. Whether you’ve hit a curb or just finished a suspension repair, our team ensures your alignment is recalibrated to factory specs.
Trailer Axle Alignment
Proper axle alignment is critical for maintaining optimal performance and safety in trailers. Our trailer axle alignment service ensures that your axles are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the trailer's centerline. This helps to distribute the load across all tires evenly, reducing tire wear and preventing trailer sway. Trailer misalignment often goes unnoticed until tire wear becomes a major issue. We inspect alignment on all trailer axle configurations, including spread axles and drop decks, ensuring even load distribution and preventing drift during braking or cornering.
Kingpin and Bushing Replacement
Worn kingpins and bushings can significantly affect your truck's steering and handling. Our experienced technicians at Fleet Master Truck & Trailer Repair can assess and replace these crucial components, restoring your vehicle's stability and performance.
Suspension and Steering Component Inspection and Repair
Our comprehensive suspension and steering component inspection service identifies any worn or damaged parts that can impact your truck's alignment. We repair or replace these components as needed to ensure proper alignment and maintain your truck's safety and performance. We take a holistic approach to alignment by also checking air ride height settings, spring hangers, torque rods, and alignment shims—ensuring every part of your chassis geometry supports a straight and stable ride.
