Suspension Inspection

Even a fraction of an inch of misalignment in your trailer axle can compromise your wallet as well as your safety.  If not corrected, axle misalignment will cause: 

• Unnatural and premature tire wear that can result in a blowout 
• Trailer suspension damage and failure
• Wandering, jerking and tension that transfers to your tow vehicle compromising ride stability and causing damage to your vehicle’s trailer hitch and frame
