Two-Wheel Alignment

Two-Wheel vs. Four-wheel alignment

A two-wheel alignment service is also known as a front wheel alignment service since, in many cases, only the wheels on the front axle are adjusted in this service. The other type of alignment service is the four-wheel or all-wheel alignment service, in which all the four wheels are adjusted. Both types of alignment services aim to allow the wheels to be aligned with the steering system and have the tires get proper contact with the road. Delaying or ignoring misalignment can result in worn-out tires or damage to the suspension or steering system components.

When to Get Wheel Alignment?

Wheel alignment is one of the most commonly required auto services; however, it is only needed if the wheels are misaligned. This means you need to have a regular wheel alignment inspection service to check for misalignment. At Triple J Motors Saipan, our technicians can guide you on the ideal service center for inspection based on the type of vehicle, conditions of the suspension, and driving conditions.

Common Indicators of Misaligned Suspension

If you feel the steering wheel tends to pull to one side, that is the most common indicator of misaligned wheels. Keep in mind that wheels can be misaligned due to regular wear and tear of the suspension. The wheels might also become misaligned by hitting a large obstacle on the road, such as a curb or pothole, or if the car has been in an accident.
