how long does a four-wheel alignment take on a 2013 ram 2500?
About 60 minutes is typical for a four-wheel alignment on a 2013 Ram 2500.
Most four-wheel alignments for a heavy-duty truck like the 2013 Ram 2500 take roughly an hour when performed with calibrated OEM alignment racks. At LHM Sandy Jeep in Sandy, UT we allow time for a full suspension inspection and a road test after adjustments to confirm towing-stable tracking.
- Pre-alignment suspension and tire inspection included
- Adjustments made to factory caster, camber and toe
- Road test to verify alignment under load and towing conditions
how often should i get an alignment on my 2013 ram 2500?
Generally, get an alignment every 2–3 years or about every 30,000 miles, and after any suspension work or major impact.
The 2013 Ram 2500’s heavy curb weight and frequent towing can accelerate tire wear; local conditions around Sandy—potholes, construction, and canyon roads—mean you may need alignments more often. Have alignment checked after hitting a large pothole, replacing tires, or performing suspension repairs.
- Check alignment after any suspension or steering component replacement
- Inspect tires for uneven wear at every rotation
- Schedule a check following major pothole or curb impacts
what are the signs my 2013 ram 2500 needs an alignment?
Common signs are uneven tire wear, the truck pulling to one side, an off-center steering wheel, or vibration at highway speeds.
A 2013 Ram 2500 with uneven shoulder wear or a steering wheel that sits off-center when driving straight should receive an alignment check. In Sandy and neighboring Draper or South Jordan, road hazards and construction can cause these symptoms to appear suddenly.
- Uneven or cupped tire wear patterns
- Vehicle pulling left or right on level pavement
- Steering wheel not centered at straight-ahead
what's included in a 2013 ram 2500 four-wheel alignment?
A four-wheel alignment includes a suspension and tie‑rod inspection, caster/camber/toe measurements and adjustment to factory specs, and a printed before/after alignment report.
For the 2013 Ram 2500 we verify steering and suspension components, measure front and rear angles, make adjustments to meet factory tolerances, and complete a road test. LHM Sandy Jeep documents before/after readings so you can see the correction applied.
- Full suspension and steering component inspection
- Caster, camber and toe measured and adjusted to factory spec
- Printed before/after alignment report and road test verification
how do i know if my 2013 ram 2500 alignment problem needs more than just an alignment?
If steering or suspension components are worn—tie rods, ball joints, or control-arm bushings—the alignment may not hold and parts replacement will be required.
Our technicians inspect the 2013 Ram 2500’s steering and suspension before making adjustments; excessive play, torn boots, or bent components are signs that repairs are required before a stable alignment can be achieved. We report needed repairs and show how they affect alignment retention.
- Check for play in tie rods and ball joints during inspection
- Torn boots, rust, or bent components indicate replacement is needed
- We re-align after any required suspension or steering repairs
is an alignment worth it for my 2013 ram 2500 if it tracks straight?
If your 2013 Ram 2500 tracks straight and shows no uneven tire wear, an immediate alignment may not be necessary, but periodic checks are recommended.
Even when steering feels normal, towing or heavy loads can create subtle misalignment that shortens tire life on a 2013 Ram 2500. In Sandy’s mix of highways and canyon roads, a periodic alignment check protects tires and handling—especially before long tow trips.
- Inspect tires for hidden uneven wear before skipping alignment
- Check alignment after component replacement or impacts
- Use scheduled alignment checks before towing seasons or long trips

Factory alignment targets for the 2013 Ram 2500 specify caster, camber, and toe for front and rear axles to maintain steering stability and tire life. Front toe is typically adjusted to a tight factory tolerance, camber and caster are set to manufacturer ranges, and rear toe is corrected to align the driveline and reduce scrub under load. We use OEM-calibrated alignment racks and electronic heads for precise readings.
Common alignment-related issues on the 2013 Ram 2500 can come from heavy towing loads, bent control arms after curb or pothole impacts, and worn ball joints or tie rods.
