Tru-Relief
Reviewer: Tom Severn of Severn Transportation in Medford, OR

We all feel how terrible our roads are.We all struggle with the constant vibrations.We all have irregular tire wear at some point.Nobody knows whats wrong.The front end is in alignment,the tires are balanced. What now? I can tell you it's TRU-BALANCE. I have a 2005 Pete that always wore the inside groove on my steer tires.NOT anymore.I put the centering sleeves on and I am getting 180K out of my Toyo's.I also run steer tires on the drives.I put the sleeves on the drive axles and get over 220K and I only have to rotate them once. The other benefit is the smoother ride. TRU-BALANCE can't fix our roads,but they sure help!!!!!! Thank You TRU-BALANCE

Freight Shaker No More
Reviewer: Curt Helmle of Helmle Trucking, Inc in Sand Springs, Oklahoma

Howdy Folks, How many thousands of miles have you tried to convince yourself that the hop in your truck was just part of "bein a truck"? Ever since I bought my 2001 Freightliner Columbia and Timpte hopper new, I've been trying everything I could think of to smooth out the ride. Over the 6-1/2 years I've owned this truck & trailer I've changed shocks every year, put Centramatics on all axles (trailer also), balanced every tire/wheel (tractor only), certified the air-bag ride height was correct, have done periodic alignments on both tractor & trailer, and assured mhyself I did not have a bent or warped wheel somewhere in the mix. Whew!! Sorry that was so long winded, but that's how frustrated I've felt after doing all that, and still had the hop. (I'm not taking a darn thing away from the Centramatics, I swear by them also, my tire wear proves that.) Back to my point: About a year ago, I decided to spend a little more money on my hop-stopping quest, and bought the Tru-Balance centering sleeves for the brake drums on the drive axles. Ron with Tru-balance insisted that I purchase only one set at a time, then more later if I was happy. A little later I had him overnight me some sleeves for my drive axle wheels. Again, I was happy, as a little more of the hop was gone. But I still could feel a hop which I felt was still in the drive axle area. I haul bulk commodities, so I have added a suspension guage on my dash for the trailer tandems. I can watch the air bag pressures on both sets of tandems from my seat. From the beginning, the trailer tandem air guage needle would "float" while going down the road. The driver tandem suspension guage needle would constantly "quiver" & "shake". My gear shift stick would bounce, as well as the sun visors and mirrors. Quite often, when I would apply brake, I could feel some uneven braking thru the steering wheel. Last week, while I was in Pennsylvania, I gave up, called Ron, had him overnight me the centering sleeves for my steer axle to the TA in Breezewood, Pa. He advised me the freight would be fairly expensive, and I said I didn't care. The TA shop put them on for me, and the result I experienced was unbelievable! My driver suspension guage needle ceased shaking, my sun visors don't shake any more, and I can see everything in my morrors without having to put up with the shaky vision, even on the PA Turnpike! I was so reluctant to spending the money to put the sleeves on the steer axle wheels because I was convinced the bouncing was coming from somewhere in the rear part of the tractor. The braking has smothed out also. I'm not so sure but that I may purchase sleeves for my trailer wheels also. I highly advise anyone who owns a truck (and trailer) to feel the money spent on this invention would definitely not be a waste. Of course, a tight maintenance schedule of doing all the other things mentioned above is crucial to keeping a truck performing at its optimum. With fuel being our single most expensive cost of operation, and tires being the second, it behooves us to do everything we can to enhance our equipment's performance. When the truck is running staight down the road, and the tires/wheels are in total contact with the road surface, we can't help but experience better fuel mileage, better tire wear, and overall extended equipment life. Not to mention less driver fatigue through a smother ride, and not having to fight the steering wheel to hold the truck on the road. In compromising driving situations, a properly maintained vehicle is easier to control. I thought when the truck manufacturers came out with the hub-piloted wheels that there couldn't be any thing else done to keep the wheel attatched to the hub/axle more securely, but Tru Balance has shown me I was wrong. DON'T HESITATE TO INVEST IN TRU-BALANCE. It'll make a believer out of you, too. Thank You Tru-Balance. Sincerely, Curt Helmle Helmle Trucking, Inc.
