Lorry alignment refers to the correct positioning of the wheels of a lorry to ensure they are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the ground, maximizing the vehicle's stability and fuel efficiency.
It is recommended to have lorry alignment checked at least once a year or whenever you notice signs of uneven tire wear, steering issues, or drifting to one side while driving.
Proper lorry alignment can help improve fuel efficiency, extend tire life, enhance vehicle handling and stability, and reduce the risk of accidents.
Signs of lorry misalignment may include uneven tire wear, vibrating steering wheel, drifting to one side, or the vehicle pulling to the left or right while driving.
Lorry alignment requires specialized equipment and expertise, so it is recommended to have it done by a professional mechanic or at a dedicated alignment shop.
The cost of lorry alignment can vary depending on the type of vehicle, the extent of misalignment, and any additional repairs needed. It is generally a cost-effective maintenance procedure compared to the potential long-term savings from improved fuel efficiency and tire longevity.
