Hunter Wheel Alignment
WHEEL ALIGNMENT GLASGOW SPECIALIST
At MB Jarvie Wheel Alignment Glasgow we use the award winning, state of the art, Hunter Elite TD four-wheel aligner. Using a series of high-definition imaging sensors, the Hunter Hawkeye four-wheel aligner measures 14 primary alignment angles on your vehicle with unparalleled accuracy.
When your car is out of alignment, you may experience irregular and premature tyre wear, handling problems or a misaligned steering wheel. A 4 wheel alignment adjustment can correct these problems and increase fuel economy, prolong tyre service life and ensure driver assist systems continuing functioning as intended.

❗️IMPORTANT NOTE:
Having wheel alignment adjusted is the ‘icing on the cake’ and should be completed only if your vehicle’s steering and suspension are in serviceable condition (i.e. no ‘play’ or wear). If you are unsure if your vehicle is ‘alignment-ready’, we strongly recommend you also request an ‘Alignment Readiness Inspection’ when booking (completed at additional cost).
Total wheel alignment cost varies and depends on the number and type of adjustments required – typical price range: £75-185+vat (N.B. Modified/performance/electric vehicles often exceed this range (up to £255+vat) as additional adjustments are often available and stripping for access may be required). Additional charges will apply if corrosion/seizure inhibits adjustment or if ‘advanced’ adjustments are required. Max. vehicle size: wheelbase: 3.1m; height 2.2m.

Case #1
Details
Measurements
The following illustration shows the measured wheel alignment angles straight from the Hunter Elite TD aligner. The colour-coding is a clear way of displaying whether a measurement inside or outside of manufacturer’s specified tolerance. Measurements are only made once the vehicle has passed our pre-alignment checks and following completion of any required special operations (see above).
Report
The illustration clearly shows that the front and rear toe angles on this vehicle are outwith the manufacturer’s specified tolerance and therefore must be adjusted to correct. The measurements obtained by the Hunter Elite TD Aligner confirm that incorrect wheel alignment has been causing or, at the very least, is contributing to the customer’s reported symptoms.
Action
Fortunately this vehicle has fully adjustable front and rear toe which allowed for a straight forward thrust-line alignment to bring the wheel alignment into specification. When adjusting alignment angles we work to specified values, not tolerance. We want your car to be the best it can be.
Scope of work
Pricing
Scope of work required to bring vehicle to alignment specification: Thrust-line Alignment (front & rear toe adjustments) – total cost £95+vat. For this vehicle, outside of standard pre-alignment checks, no special operations (e.g. ballast loading/suspension calibration/etc) were required. Seizure did not inhibit adjustment.
Case #2
Details
Measurements
The following illustration shows the measured wheel alignment angles straight from the Hunter Elite TD aligner. The colour-coding is a clear way of displaying whether a measurement inside or outside of manufacturer’s specified tolerance. Measurements are only made once the vehicle has passed our pre-alignment checks and following completion of any required special operations (see above).
Report
The illustration clearly shows that the rear camber angles on this vehicle are outwith the manufacturer’s specified tolerance and therefore must be adjusted to correct. The measurements obtained by the Hunter Elite TD Aligner confirm that incorrect wheel alignment has been causing or, at the very least, is contributing to the customer’s reported symptoms.
Action
Fortunately this vehicle has fully adjustable suspension which allowed the required adjustments to be completed to bring the wheel alignment to specification. The required action included rear camber adjustments plus front and rear toe adjustments. NOTE: Despite the total rear toe angle being within specification at the initial measurement, adjustment was required, as when adjusting rear camber, toe angles will alter and therefore also require adjustment to correct/maintain specification. Once the rear camber and rear toe/thrust-line had been adjusted/zeroed, it is of critical importance that the front axle toe also be adjusted (vehicles with fully adjustable front and rear suspension, front toe must always be adjusted following any rear axle adjustment to ensure “steer ahead” angle is correct). When adjusting alignment angles we work to specified values, not tolerance. We want your car to be the best it can be.
Scope of work
Pricing
Scope of work required to bring vehicle to alignment specification: Ballast Loading (£25+vat) + Rear Camber (2 x £22.50+vat) + Front & Rear Toe/Thrust-line Adjustments (£95+vat) = total cost £165+vat.
Case #3
Details
Measurements
The following illustration shows the measured wheel alignment angles straight from the Hunter Elite TD aligner. The colour-coding is a clear way of displaying whether a measurement inside or outside of manufacturer’s specified tolerance. Measurements are only made once the vehicle has passed our pre-alignment checks and following completion of any required special operations (see above).
Report
The illustration shows that all measured angles on this vehicle are within the manufacturer’s specified tolerance and therefore no adjustment is required. This is especially good news because this vehicle has adjustable front toe only which means the scope for correcting any wheel alignment issues is limited.
Action
No action required 🙂
Scope of work
Pricing
Scope of work required to bring vehicle to alignment specification: No adjustment required (£0.00) = total cost £0.00.
