How Does Ford Thunderbird Alignment Work?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Ford Thunderbird’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. In an alignment service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Ford. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When the system is aligned to Ford specifications, 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. Bring your 1987 Ford Thunderbird in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Ford’s recommended measurements. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Ford Thunderbird

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Ford Thunderbird alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on your fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 1987 Ford Thunderbird: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or squealing tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Thunderbird dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does an Alignment for Ford Thunderbird Cost?

On a budget? Ford Thunderbird wheel alignment might be more affordable than you think. In the long run, it could actually help you save money. Correctly aligned wheels can help boost fuel efficiency and increase the lifespan of your tires, meaning you could get more miles out of the same tires or tank of gas. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Contact your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a no-hassle 1987 Ford Thunderbird wheel alignment estimate.
