FORD Truck Service FAQ
1) How often should I align my Ford truck?
At least once a year or any time you install tires, hit a pothole/curb, or change ride height (lift/level/air). Work trucks may need it more often.
2) Do I need heavy-duty shocks or springs for towing?
If you tow/haul frequently, HD shocks, helper leafs, or air-assist reduce sag and improve control. We’ll match components to your actual payload.
3) My F-150 wanders and feels loose—what’s likely?
Common causes include worn tie rods, ball joints, bushings, or steering rack/box wear. We’ll pinpoint it with a proper inspection before replacing parts.
4) Can you align lifted F-250/F-350 Super Duty trucks?
Yes. We correct caster/camber with the right arms/bushings and verify driveline angles to reduce vibration and bump-steer.
5) How do I make my Ranger ride smoother without losing capacity?
Quality twin-tube or monotube shocks and progressive-rate springs/air-assist can improve ride while maintaining load-carrying ability.
Does your car dip or rock when you go over bumps or drift around corners even at low speeds?
If you answered yes, it may be time to replace your vehicle’s shocks or struts.
