• Inspect after major pothole impacts or suspension work
• Check alignment when installing new tires
• Follow visual tire wear and steering feel for earlier signs

Look for uneven tire wear, the vehicle pulling to one side, an off-center steering wheel, or vibration at speed.

Those symptoms indicate the 2018 Ram 2500’s toe, camber or caster may be out of factory tolerance. In Albuquerque, encountering potholes or rough patches on arterials can trigger these issues more quickly. Technicians at Larry H.

A four-wheel alignment includes caster, camber and toe measurement and adjustment to factory specifications plus a printed before-and-after report.

The process begins with a complete suspension and steering inspection, followed by measurement with OEM-grade alignment equipment.

If tie rods, ball joints, or worn struts are present, you will need part replacement before an alignment will hold.

Technicians inspect steering and suspension components during the alignment check and will point out worn parts that prevent stable alignment results. In Albuquerque, salt-free but rough roads can accelerate bushing and ball joint wear. If repairs are needed, the dealer provides repair recommendations and schedules follow-up work so an alignment can be completed properly.

• Suspension wear can prevent alignment from holding
• Dealer inspects and documents any worn steering components
• Repairs quoted separately before final alignment
