Truck & Trailer Alignment

A truck that's out of alignment fights you every mile. It pulls to one side, wears tires unevenly, and burns more fuel than it should. On a tractor-trailer, even a small misalignment at one axle can affect how the whole rig tracks down the highway. I-55 Truck & Trailer Repair provides semi truck alignment and trailer alignment at our shop on I-55 in Crawfordsville AR, helping drivers and fleets across Memphis & West Memphis protect their tires and keep their rigs running straight.

Why Choose Us

Straight Tracking and Longer Tire Life

Aligning a heavy truck means looking at every axle, not just the front end. Our ASE certified mechanics check the steer axle, drive axles, and trailer axles so they all work together. Before we make adjustments, we inspect steering and suspension parts, since worn components can throw an alignment off again quickly. As a full-service truck repair shop with 25 years of experience, we can fix those worn parts in the same visit.

What We Offer

Alignment for Every Axle on Your Rig

Tires are one of your biggest operating costs, and poor alignment is one of the fastest ways to waste them. Our alignment service brings each axle back into proper position for better handling and more even wear. Here's what our alignment service includes:

Truck & Trailer Alignment By I-55 Truck and Trailer Repair
  • Steer Axle Alignment: We adjust toe, camber, and caster to keep your steering stable and responsive. A properly aligned front end reduces driver fatigue and uneven steer tire wear.

  • Drive Axle Alignment: Drive axles that aren't square to the frame can push the truck sideways and wear tires quickly. We align drive axles so they track straight behind the steer axle.

  • Trailer Axle Alignment: A misaligned trailer can drag your tires sideways and make the rig pull. We align trailer axles to keep your trailer tracking directly behind your truck.

  • Full Tractor-Trailer Alignment: For the best results, we check and align every axle on the rig as a complete system. This helps your truck and trailer work together for smoother handling.

  • Steering and Suspension Inspection: Worn tie rod ends, kingpins, and suspension bushings can prevent a lasting alignment. We check these parts before aligning and let you know if anything needs replacement.

  • Alignment After Repairs: Replacing steering, suspension, or axle parts can change your alignment settings. We realign the truck after major repairs to protect your tires.

  • Tire Wear Review: Your tires tell a story about how the truck has been tracking. We read wear patterns to help pinpoint alignment problems and confirm the fix.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my truck needs an alignment?

Common signs include pulling to one side, an off-center steering wheel, wandering on the highway, and uneven or fast tire wear.

How often should a semi truck be aligned?

Many fleets check alignment during regular maintenance, after installing new tires, or after major steering and suspension repairs. Hitting a large pothole or curb is also a good reason to have it checked.

Can trailer alignment affect my truck's tire wear?

Yes. A misaligned trailer can make the whole rig track at an angle, which can cause uneven wear on truck and trailer tires alike.

What's the difference between alignment and balancing?

Alignment adjusts the angles of the wheels so they point in the right direction. Balancing corrects weight distribution in the tire and wheel so they spin smoothly without vibration.

Can worn parts prevent a proper alignment?

Yes. Loose steering or suspension parts make it impossible to hold alignment settings. We inspect and replace worn components before aligning your truck.
