Heavy‑Duty Front End Repair Services in Austin, TX

Are your truck’s steering, suspension or alignment giving you trouble? At Atlas Truck Repair, we specialize in front-end repair for light‑ to heavy‑duty trucks and fleets.

Front End Repair in Austin, TX

The front end of your truck takes a beating. Worn bushings, bent control arms, damaged kingpins or misaligned frames can make your truck drift, pull, sway or wear tires excessively. According to truck‑repair specialists, a full front‑end rebuild isn’t just about replacing parts, it’s about keeping your truck working safely.     

At Atlas Truck Repair we:

  • Inspect steering, suspension and alignment components.
  • Identify worn or damaged parts, including springs, shocks, control arms, tie‑rods, kingpins and more.
  • Use precise alignment equipment to restore tracking and reduce tire wear and handling issues.
  • Repair or replace components to restore safe ride height, correct steering angles and optimum performance.

    Wheel alignment & tracking service: After the repairs, we realign to manufacturer specs and fleet standards, so your trucks steer straight and last longer.
  • Fleet‑centric scheduling and reporting: We serve fleets with service logs, consistent communication and quick turnaround so you minimise downtime.

Signs It’s Time for a Front End Repair

You might not always see the damage, but your truck will tell you:

  • The vehicle drifts or pulls to one side at highway speeds.
  • You feel excessive vibration, shimmy or “wandering” in the front end.
  • Uneven or rapid tire wear on front tyres.
  • Handling feels loose or sloppy.
  • After‑load or spring sag: truck list, front end squats or misaligns when loaded.

If you’re seeing these symptoms, call us sooner rather than later. If you delay front-end repair you could be facing bigger problems and higher cost.

Why we're Austin's trusted front end repair shop.

Schedule Service

Front End Work

Technicians must put your vehicle on a lift to properly inspect the front end parts. During the front end inspection, your technician will mark down all of the components that are worn well past their given service limits. Since these components tend to wear down together, you may need to replace several parts to make your car drive like new once again.

Front End Repair

Technicians must remove the old components using power and air tools that can quickly loosen stuck bolts. Technicians will install all of the front end components on your vehicle using fresh hardware. They will then use a torque wrench to tighten down the hardware to spec to keep the nuts and bolts from loosening unexpectedly. Depending on the damage or wear severity, technicians can usually perform the full part replacement process in just a few hours.

Fine Tuning

After installing all of the new suspension components, it is incredibly important to have your technician perform a front end alignment. This is because removing and replacing tie rods, ball joints, control arms or other front end components knocks all of your caster, camber and toe adjustments out of spec. Technicians will place your vehicle on an alignment rack to accurately bring these setting back into range.

Front End Auto Repair

If your car feels unstable or out of control, visit Atlas Truck Repair to have a front end diagnostic performed. Our qualified technicians always perform a full visual inspection and shakedown to spot front end suspension issues. Your technician will verify that the worn or damaged components are causing the bulk of your drivability problems before writing up an inspection report and work order.
