Why is an alignment important for a 2014 Ford F-450 Super Duty and what are the benefits?

• Proper alignment preserves tire life and prevents uneven wear, which is especially important on a heavy-duty diesel truck that tows frequently.

• Correct alignment reduces stress on suspension components and can prevent costly repairs down the road.
• Fuel economy and towing stability are improved when wheels track to factory specifications—benefiting both immediate performance and long-term ownership costs.

How do you know if your wheels need alignment?

• Look for uneven or rapid tire wear, feathering, or cupping patterns across tread surfaces.
• If the steering wheel is off-center when driving straight, or the truck pulls to one side, an alignment check is recommended.
• Vibrations, wandering, or unstable handling while towing are signs your alignment should be inspected promptly.
• After hitting potholes, curbs, or after suspension work and new tires, have the alignment verified by certified technicians at our dealership.
