How Does Dodge W150 Alignment Work?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Dodge W150’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. In an alignment service, calculated changes are made to the angles of your tires. This is so that your tires hit the road at an optimal angle for your vehicle’s performance — just as Dodge intended. 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. Three good things happen as a result: your car handles better, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1987 Dodge W150, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Dodge. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

When Should I Get Dodge W150 Wheel Alignment?

It’s wise to have your Dodge W150 alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce 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 1987 Dodge W150: pulling to the left or right, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or squealing tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your W150 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.
