cars to motorhomes to commercial vehicles including all types of truck
and trailer all the way through to 8 axle 500/1000 tonee cranes.
our experience extends to many specialist/rare vehicles such circa
1900 vintage cars,specialised service vehicles to such things as the
“NODDY TRAIN” on your local seafront
we operate a 24/7 sevice where possible at a location convenient to
yourselves but suitable for the job to be done.(a flat hard level
surface)

Benefits
Poor wheel alignment(sometimes known as tracking) increases
resistance to movement which in makes your engine work harder. This
uses more fuel and your tyres wear more quickly. Many fleets now insist
that their vehicles are laser aligned annually.
MAXIMUM TYRE LIFE - poor alignment will cause uneven
tyre wear and reduce tyre life. Customers have shown improved average
tyre life of over 20%, meaning it is possible to save more than the
original cost of alignment.
IMPROVED FUEL ECONOMY - poor alignment increases the
effort your engine has to make to move the vehicle. A large proportion
of the vehicle’s fuel is used to overcome resistance against movement.A
small amount of misalignment can increase fuel consumption by upto 8% at
the extreme and and savings of 5% are common.
LESS CARBON EMISSIONS - CO emissions are
the prime target greenhouse gas responsible for global warming, all
industry is increasingly being asked to find ways to reduce emissions.CO emissions
are directly proportional to fuel usage, poor wheel alignment increses
the amount of fuel used and will have an immediate impact in reducing
total carbon emissions.
For enviromently minded companies this is immediately reducing your
carbon footprint and proves your commitment to being ecologically
friendly.
DRIVER FATIGUE -With a correctly aligned vehicle the
driver will not have to constantly fight the vehicle tokeep it moving in
the direction required. This in turn reduces driver tiredness,increases
comfort and at the extreme will prevent repetive strain injuries caused
by constant effort of maintaining correct direction.
SAFER VEHICLES - All vehicles need a driver.He is
the most important part of a moving vehicle and should be treated as
such. Should he become tired or stressed due to his work enviroment (99%
of the time his cab) this is likely to affect his overall concentration
this is always a bad thing and positively dangerous in some situation
where even a very small distraction could cause an accident.
A happy comfortable unstressed driver is always safer and usually a better employee overall.
