How Does Dodge Ram 50 Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Dodge Ram 50's suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. 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 Dodge intended them to. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Dodge specifies for your vehicle, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. As a result, you get several benefits: your ride is smoother, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1988 Dodge Ram 50, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Dodge. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Dodge Ram 50

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Dodge Ram 50 alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 1988 Dodge Ram 50: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or squealing tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Ram 50 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.
