MISALIGNMENT OF WHEELS Wheel alignment should be tested et least twice a year. The constant road shock and vibration gradually force misalignment of the wheels, re• salting in harder steering and great- er tire wear . UNEQUAUIZ.ED BRAKES Unbalanced breaks will cause a tire to wear faster than the are on the opposite wheel. This condition cause: grabbing and the tire to skid. HARD STEERING CAUSE Hard steering is asually caused by under -inflation of tires and lack of lubrication of Icing pins and the ioints itt the tie rod connecting the front wheels.
