When you replace the front struts, you are essentially changing the angle at which the wheels are sitting. This can cause the car to pull to one side or the other, or it can cause the tires to wear unevenly. A wheel alignment will correct these issues and ensure that the car is driving safely and efficiently.
Here are some specific reasons why a wheel alignment is important after replacing the front struts:
* To correct the camber angle. The camber angle is the angle at which the wheels are tilted in relation to the ground. When the camber angle is incorrect, it can cause the car to pull to one side or the other.
* To correct the toe angle. The toe angle is the angle at which the wheels are pointed in relation to each other. When the toe angle is incorrect, it can cause the tires to wear unevenly.
* To correct the caster angle. The caster angle is the angle at which the steering axis is tilted in relation to the ground. When the caster angle is incorrect, it can affect the car's stability and handling.
By having a wheel alignment performed after replacing the front struts, you can ensure that your car is driving safely and efficiently.
