What Can I Expect with Jeep Wrangler Alignment?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Jeep Wrangler’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. When your car has an alignment service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Jeep. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When your suspension is aligned to Jeep’s optimal measurements, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. Three good things happen as a result: your ride is smoother, the lifespan of your tires increases, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Bring your 1988 Jeep Wrangler 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 Jeep. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Jeep Wrangler

It’s wise to have your Jeep Wrangler 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 1988 Jeep Wrangler: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, uneven or rapid tire wear, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Wrangler dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does an Alignment for Jeep Wrangler Cost?

On a budget? Jeep Wrangler wheel alignment might be more affordable than you think. Over the life of your car, it could help you save on overall costs. Appropriately aligned wheels can support increased tire lifespan and fuel efficiency, so you get more miles out of the same tank of gas and set of tires. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 1988 Jeep Wrangler wheel alignment estimate.
