Questions about this service.
Direct answers help confirm whether the unit and requested work belong at Standard HiRail.
Do you align the road wheels on HiRail trucks?
Yes, for eligible vehicles through Ford F250 size that fit our alignment equipment and provide safe clearance. We confirm dimensions and configuration before booking.
Does road wheel alignment include railgear alignment?
No. Standard HiRail aligns supported vehicle road wheels. Railgear and track alignment require separate specialist equipment and service.
