The 1985 Dodge Ramcharger: Wheel alignment
Wheel alignment for the 1985 Dodge Ramcharger: the work is done by a shop we trust, never by CarmaCars. A crooked steering wheel on a straight road is a common sign the alignment is off.
Details the shop needs
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. The powertrain to know here is the 5.2L 8-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive.
How the request works
Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name.
A rental while you wait
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We collect the rental when your car is back. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Small things that help
Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months.
Getting a clear quote
Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected.

Send a request: the car, the problem and when suits you.
