Looking for an alignment shop that understands lifted and modified vehicles?
American Off-Road Customs performs 4×4 alignments in Las Vegas for Jeeps, trucks, Broncos, Toyotas and other off-road vehicles—whether they’re stock, lifted or heavily modified.
Lift kits, adjustable control arms, aftermarket steering, larger tires and other modifications can change suspension and steering geometry. Our team understands modified 4x4s and can properly align vehicles that don’t always fit the standard factory setup used by general alignment shops.
If your vehicle is pulling to one side, the steering wheel isn’t centered, you’re experiencing, Death wobble, uneven tire wear, or you’ve recently installed suspension or steering upgrades, it’s time to have the alignment checked.
Experiencing Jeep Death Wobble?
Death wobble is a violent front-end oscillation that can occur after hitting a bump or road irregularity, particularly on solid-axle vehicles such as Jeep Wranglers. While alignment and suspension geometry are important, death wobble isn’t something we simply “fix with an alignment.”
Worn or loose steering and suspension components, track bar issues, ball joints, tie rod ends, control arms, improper caster and other problems can contribute to the condition. Our technicians can inspect the steering and suspension system to help identify the actual cause before recommending repairs.
If your Jeep is experiencing death wobble, let us know when scheduling so we can diagnose the problem rather than simply performing an alignment and sending you on your way.
Why Modified 4x4s Need Specialized Alignments
Lifted and modified vehicles often require more attention than a standard factory alignment. Changes in ride height, control arms, steering components, tire size and suspension geometry can affect caster, toe, steering feel and tire wear.
At American Off-Road Customs, we work with modified Jeeps, trucks, Broncos and Toyotas every day. We understand how aftermarket suspension and steering components affect alignment and can evaluate the vehicle as a complete system—not just adjust it until the numbers turn green on the alignment machine.
- Lift Kits: Changes in ride height can alter suspension and steering geometry.
- Adjustable Control Arms: Allow additional geometry corrections that many stock vehicles don’t have.
- Larger Tires: Can make existing steering, suspension and alignment problems more noticeable.
- Aftermarket Steering: Upgraded steering components may require additional adjustment and inspection.
- Off-Road Use: Hard trail use can knock alignment out or reveal worn and loose components.
Signs Your 4x4 May Need an Alignment
- Vehicle Pulling: Your Jeep or truck pulls to one side while driving on a relatively flat road.
- Off-Center Steering Wheel: The steering wheel isn’t centered when you’re driving straight.
- Uneven Tire Wear: Inside, outside or irregular tire wear can indicate an alignment or suspension issue.
- Poor Handling: The vehicle feels unstable, wanders or doesn’t track properly.
- After Suspension Upgrades: A lift kit, control arms, steering upgrades or other suspension changes may require the alignment to be checked and adjusted.
- After Hard Off-Road Use: Rocks, impacts and trail use can affect alignment or expose worn steering and suspension components.
Not every handling or tire-wear problem is caused by alignment. If we find worn, loose or damaged steering or suspension components, we’ll explain what needs attention before trying to align around a mechanical problem.

Why Choose AORC for Your 4x4 Alignment?
We Work on Modified 4x4s Every Day: Lift kits, adjustable control arms, aftermarket steering, larger tires and custom suspension components aren’t unusual here—they’re what we work with every day.
Alignment & Suspension Knowledge: An alignment machine provides measurements, but understanding what those measurements mean on a modified vehicle matters. Our technicians understand how suspension and steering changes affect vehicle geometry and handling.
We Diagnose Before We Adjust: If worn or loose components are preventing your vehicle from holding a proper alignment, we’ll tell you. We don’t want to align around a mechanical problem that needs to be repaired first.
In-House 4×4 Service: If we find an issue with your steering or suspension, AORC can diagnose and repair it in-house instead of sending you to another shop.

4x4 Alignment FAQs
Do lifted Jeeps and trucks need special alignments?
Lifted and modified vehicles often require more attention than a standard factory alignment. Changes to ride height, control arms, steering components and tire size can affect suspension geometry, caster, toe and how the vehicle tracks. AORC works with modified 4x4s every day and can make adjustments based on the vehicle’s actual suspension setup.
Should I get an alignment after installing a lift kit?
Yes, an alignment should generally be checked after installing a lift kit or making significant suspension or steering changes. Altering ride height or replacing components can change alignment measurements and affect handling, steering-wheel position and tire wear.
Can you align a Jeep with adjustable control arms?
Yes. Adjustable control arms are common on modified Jeeps and allow additional suspension geometry adjustments that aren’t available with factory fixed-length arms. Our custom alignment service is designed for modified vehicles that require more than a standard alignment.
Can you align lifted trucks and 4x4s?
Yes. American Off-Road Customs performs alignments on stock, lifted and modified Jeeps, trucks, Broncos, Toyotas and other 4×4 vehicles in Las Vegas. We work with aftermarket suspension and steering components that many general alignment shops don’t regularly encounter.
Can an alignment fix Jeep death wobble?
Not necessarily. Death wobble can involve worn or loose steering and suspension components, improper suspension geometry or other mechanical issues, so an alignment alone may not solve the problem. AORC offers a separate wobble diagnosis to inspect the vehicle and identify potential causes before recommending repairs or alignment adjustments.
How do I know if my 4×4 needs an alignment?
Common signs include the vehicle pulling to one side, an off-center steering wheel, uneven tire wear, wandering or poor tracking. You should also consider having the alignment checked after suspension or steering work, installing a lift kit, or significant off-road use.
How much does a 4×4 alignment cost at AORC?
Alignment pricing depends on the type of service your vehicle needs. AORC currently offers a Front Alignment for $165, a Full Front & Rear Alignment for $200, and a Modified 4×4 Custom Alignment for $300. Vehicles experiencing a shimmy, shake or death wobble can also be scheduled for a $70 Wobble Diagnosis.
