Heavy-duty trucks see added stress from towing, payload, and rougher surfaces around the Phoenix metro.

Four clear signs are uneven tire wear, the truck pulling, an off-center steering wheel, and vibration at speed.

On an F-450-Super-Duty, these symptoms can appear faster due to heavy loads and wide front-end geometry. If you sense drift on the US-60 or Loop 202, or see feathered shoulders on your tires, book an inspection. We can verify caster, camber, and toe, then correct to factory targets and provide a printout.

• Vehicle drifts left/right on straight roads
• Steering wheel not centered while driving straight

We also inspect common heavy-duty wear points like tie-rod ends, ball joints, and bushings that can cause drift or rapid edge wear.
