How Does Ford Ranger Alignment Work?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Ford Ranger’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. When your car has 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 Ford intended. When the system is aligned to Ford specifications, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. This gives you several benefits: your ride is smoother, the lifespan of your tires increases, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Bring your 1989 Ford Ranger in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Ford. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Ford Ranger

It's a good idea to have your Ford Ranger alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and could cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 1989 Ford Ranger: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Ranger dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.
