@Taha83 That could help. Depends how worn they are. Replacing any suspension stuff will help. Check your tire PSI make sure they're correct and equal before changing anything. I've seen many trucks that pull when one tire is at 110 and one at like 75 psi.
@TylerTheFieldServiceTech My both steer tires air pressure is at 100 psi but they start cupping. I'm not sure about my drive tires. I'm planing to get OEM shocks for my Cascadia but they are expensive. I'm not sure if it's worth to price.
@Taha83 yeah that's a whole other set of issues if the tires are cupped bad run them till they're no good. Then when you get new tires. Make sure to get a good balance on the tires and then replace the suspension parts when you get new tires. Anything frieghtliner is shit. I would buy aftermarket.
Bro nice channel i came here for the hitshot videos but im a mechanic too, and im a tech in mechanic shop now, but i need to do my own business but im thinking in hotshot, or the same mechanic jobs as mobil, i don't know what you think 🤔, keep going with the videos greetings from Utah County
Mobile mechanics would probably be the better option. Home daily, much cheaper operating costs, and you work where you want. Honestly. I miss hotshot dearly, and one day, I'll probably go back when I'm older, and I don't wanna wrench anymore. But that's a hard ass life if you have a family. Doing your own thing for mobile would be good. You would basically be on call constantly, so you would be waiting for the phone to ring. Really, google advertising and you would be set and super busy making money equivalent to what you make now is where it could be tough, especially in the beginning. I think the freedom would be nice! A guy I know does mobile auto maintenance for cars. He basically does oil, brakes, suspension, and services. He does decent, but getting steady work is where it's hard. Good for a side gig, but he can't keep it steady. He has been doing it for about 2 years. He like converted half his garage into a parts warehouse. Got a small van and just does his thing.
@TylerTheFieldServiceTech thanks for take the time for request , and how you know price the jobs?, I know the prices form the shop where I work now, are super high, but being a mobil service that is going to be little bit cheaper?
@allanherrera9549 I don't run my own truck. Most commonly though you just charge an hourly rate probably around 120-180 and a travel rate then you add a percentage on top of your part purchase cost. Mobile Service is usually more expensive than shop service. But you also have to be competitive and not be greedy. Getting your customers is the tough part. But If you can get in good with a company and basically bill them for a guaranteed hour amount per week plus parts you're set.
very nice
Hello my truck is pulling to right even after accurate alignment. Do you think replacing the shock absobers and tie rods will solve the issue?
