Looking for professional truck alignment services in Laval? At Ressorts Industriels Laval / Centre du Camion C.T. CAM, we specialize in precise truck alignment for heavy-duty trucks, light trucks, commercial vans, trailers and fleet vehicles across Laval, the North Shore and the Greater Montreal area. We perform both front alignment and rear alignment on a wide range of vehicles, including Hino trucks, Isuzu trucks, Mercedes Sprinter vans, Ford Transit vans and multi-axle commercial vehicles.
Proper truck alignment is essential to maintain vehicle stability, reduce tire wear and improve fuel efficiency. Even a small alignment issue can lead to premature tire wear, steering instability and higher operating costs over time. Our technicians use a precision Bee Line laser alignment machine to ensure accurate adjustments adapted to real road conditions and manufacturer specifications.
Every vehicle is road tested before and after the alignment to verify handling, steering response and overall driving performance. We perform alignment services on front axles, rear axles, tandem axles and multi-axle configurations for commercial fleets, trucks, vans and trailers.
Wheel alignment and balancing for heavy trucks and light trucks is the process of ensuring that the wheels and tires are equal and positioned so that they turn as well as possible when the truck is in motion.
Truck alignment also uses advanced technology to determine where the wheels are in relation to each other. This allows the technician to know where to make adjustments to ensure better wheel tracking.
Wheel balancing for heavy trucks involves placing each tire-wheel assembly on a specialized machine that spins the wheel at high speed to detect any imbalance or slight vibration. By analyzing centrifugal forces, the system identifies areas where small lead weights need to be added to ensure perfect balance around the axis of rotation. This process allows the wheels to be balanced correctly, ensuring that the tires are well balanced, reducing premature wear and improving road safety. We balance all types of light and heavy trucks, and we balance truck trailers.
Wheels and tires, even those manufactured in the same batches, are never exactly the same. This means that, in order to ensure the smoothest ride possible, you should have them balanced periodically. Wheel and tire alignment takes into account manufacturing differences that may occur. It also corrects for wear and tear caused by driving the truck.
When your wheels and tires are out of balance, you will notice vibrations in your truck when driving and hear excessive road noise.
We perform wheel alignment for all types of light and heavy trucks, as well as truck trailer wheel alignment.
Wheel balancing involves distributing weight evenly around the axis of rotation of each tire-wheel assembly. Using specialized machines that simulate real driving conditions, technicians detect imbalances that can cause vibrations or abnormal tire wear.
Small weights are then added to balance each wheel and ensure that they turn smoothly and steadily, without wobbling or imbalance.
Wheel alignment involves adjusting the angles of the wheels so that they are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the ground. Poor alignment can lead to uneven tire wear, excessive fuel consumption, and cause the vehicle to pull to one side.
Technicians use high-precision equipment to analyze wheel alignment and make the necessary adjustments directly to the truck’s suspension system. The goal is to ensure optimal alignment for stable and safe driving.
We specialize in front and rear wheel alignment using a laser system and a computerized system for all types of vehicles.
We have a machine capable of aligning small cars and pickup trucks.
We specialize in the heavy truck alignment with six, ten, or twelve wheels, as well as trailers with two, three, or four axles.

Yes. We provide alignment services for commercial vans including Mercedes Sprinter, Ford Transit and other work vans used by contractors, delivery companies and commercial fleets.
Truck alignment is typically recommended every 20,000 kilometers, but this can vary depending on usage and road conditions. In regions with rough roads, impacts and potholes can affect alignment more quickly. Regular inspections help detect small deviations early and prevent excessive tire wear.
A misaligned truck often shows clear warning signs, although they may appear gradually. Common indicators include the truck pulling to one side, a steering wheel that is not centered, vibrations, and uneven tire wear. These symptoms tend to worsen over time and should be addressed before they lead to more expensive repairs.
Yes. We perform both front alignment and rear alignment depending on the vehicle configuration and alignment condition.
Most truck alignments take between one and three hours. The duration depends on the vehicle configuration and the extent of the adjustments needed. A quick diagnostic at the beginning helps determine the exact time required for the service.
Driving with poor alignment can reduce vehicle stability and increase braking distances. It also accelerates tire wear and can place additional stress on suspension and steering components. Over time, this can lead to more serious mechanical issues and higher repair costs.
Yes, a strong impact can easily affect alignment, especially on a loaded truck. Road conditions, particularly in regions with frequent potholes, increase the risk of misalignment. It is always recommended to check alignment after a significant impact.
Yes, a misaligned truck creates additional rolling resistance, forcing the engine to work harder. This increases fuel consumption over time. Proper alignment helps reduce resistance and improves overall efficiency.
