Why Is Chevrolet K20 Suburban Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Chevrolet K20 Suburban’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. When your car has an alignment service, the individual angles of your tires are adjusted so that they come into contact with the road in just the right way — the way Chevrolet intended them to. When your suspension is aligned to Chevrolet’s optimal measurements, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. This gives you several benefits: your ride is smoother, the lifespan of your tires increases, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1986 Chevrolet K20 Suburban, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Chevrolet’s recommended measurements. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When Should I Get Chevrolet K20 Suburban Wheel Alignment?

It's a good idea to have your Chevrolet K20 Suburban alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle. You may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 1986 Chevrolet K20 Suburban: pulling to the left or right, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or tires that squeal frequently. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your K20 Suburban if your wheel alignment needs attention.

Chevrolet K20 Suburban wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. In the long run, it could actually help you save money. Appropriately aligned wheels can support increased tire lifespan and fuel efficiency, so you can fill up less often, plus get more miles out of your tires. Proper wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 1986 Chevrolet K20 Suburban wheel alignment estimate.
