  I have had repeated problems with the DEF system . I went looking for a service center where I could have a conversation about my vehicle with an informed person at the front desk. I found it at Dales.

  I waited a year to see if there would be problems with a timing belt kit install on a Sequoia.  There are none and the Truck runs great, that s why I gave 5 Stars. I would go back.

  Excellent service.

They’re very professional and would always recommend them, the diagnosis was accurate and fast.
It was a  transmission failure  therefore I needed a replacement, which they delivered at a timely manner, despite the amount of work involved.

Great work and quality.

  Yesterday morning as I prepared to leave my home, my car sputtered to start. I drove to Dale's and thankfully my car could get booked in to check the source of the problem. Within 15 minutes, I was called to advise me that I needed a new battery. Within two hours my car was ready for pickup. I have been a customer for many years and I have always received friendly, informed and timely service.

Lifted Vehicle Alignment Service FAQ

1. Do lifted trucks need a special wheel alignment?

Yes. Lifted vehicles require different alignment angles due to altered suspension geometry. Standard factory settings do not work for lifted setups.

2. How often should I align a lifted vehicle?

Every 6–12 months, or immediately after installing suspension components, changing tire size, or noticing steering or tire wear issues.

3. Can Dale’s Auto Service align heavily modified or off-road builds?

Absolutely. We align lifted trucks, long-travel suspensions, aftermarket control arms, oversized tires, and fully customized rigs.

4. What problems occur if a lifted truck isn’t properly aligned?

Rapid tire wear, poor steering response, pulling, instability, and premature suspension damage.

5. Do I need an alignment after installing a lift or leveling kit?

Yes—100%. Any suspension modification changes geometry and requires recalibration for safe handling and proper tracking.

Pre-Alignment Checklist:

Before bringing your car in for alignment, please ensure the following:

Confirm that the steering and suspension are in safe, proper working condition.
Check that the front tie rods are not seized, as we do not use heat to free them up.
Inspect ball joints, bushings, and tie rods for signs of wear or play.
Ensure bearings are not loose or worn, and there are no leaking struts or shocks.
Verify the steering box for minor play, and ensure tires are safe for driving.
The vehicle must be capable of running under its own power.
If the vehicle underwent restoration, ensure all work has been double-checked by the facility/person responsible. If unsure, book a steering/suspension re-torque before the alignment appointment.
We will proceed with the alignment once the vehicle passes our inspection

Please note, should any components fail inspection, there will be a charge for the inspection as our technicians invest time in this process. We aim to avoid wasting your time and money by addressing these issues upfront.

Please request a steering and suspension inspection if you do not know the condition of your vehicle.

Thorough inspections and prioritize safety to prevent any future issues.
