How Does GMC R3500 Alignment Work?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your GMC R3500’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. When your car has an alignment service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by GMC. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When the system is aligned to GMC specifications, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. This gives you several benefits: you enjoy a smoother ride, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. When you bring in your 1987 GMC R3500, we’ll perform an alignment check first. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match GMC’s recommended measurements. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When Should I Get GMC R3500 Wheel Alignment?

It’s wise to have your GMC R3500 alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles.

Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your R3500 if your wheel alignment needs attention.
