HUNTER RESEARCH AND TRAINING
CENTER
HUNTER . . . dedicated to service excellence through professional training
HUNTER TRAINING - Hunter operates the most advanced, up-to-date
Training Center in the industry today.
The courses have been designed to meet the needs of new and
experienced technicians who want to increase their mechanical and
diagnostic capabilities. The low student-teacher ratio (average 7 to 1)
and the emphasis on "hands-on" training (80% time in shop) create an
excellent learning environment.
Align 1 (Basic Alignment Theory and Practice)
Students will learn basic wheel alignment service through classroom and
hands-on practice. Pre-alignment services, wheel alignment angle theory
and wheel alignment equipment operation are the focus of this course.
Basic wheel alignment adjustments will be demonstrated and students
will practice on vehicles in a shop environment.
Align 3 (Advanced Diagnostics and OE Procedures)
This class focuses on using advanced diagnostic angles and
measurements to determine damaged suspension and steering
components. Techniques used in finding damaged parts are reinforced
with classroom scenarios and hands-on labs designed to both challenge
and further embed these much needed skills.
GSP9700 Certification
This course combines the Rolling Smooth course with a certification
program for Hunter Engineering's GSP9700 Road Force Measurement
system. Students use hands-on practice with the GSP9700 to gain a
proficiency level acceptable to be deemed certified.
HDT Alignment 1 (Fundamental Alignment)
Classroom and shop practice is used to teach the basic elements of
Class 8 truck wheel alignment. Students will learn the proper method to
measure and correct the required basic alignment angles using state of
the art equipment. Trailer alignment is included.

Align 2 (Advanced theory / Aftermarket Adjustment)
Modified vehicle wheel alignment is the focus of this course. Students
learn how to use alignment angles to achieve vehicle handling
performance in conjunction with ride height kits and modified tire/wheel
packages. Aftermarket alignment adjustment kits are discussed and
demonstrated.
Performance Tire (Basic and Advanced Tire Changing)
Students will learn basic terminology and theory related to servicing tires
and wheels. Students learn the proper techniques for changing tires on
tulip clamp and table top tire changer designs. This course covers the
proper tire changing techniques for low profile tires, run flat designs, and
tire/wheel assemblies using TPMS.
Rolling Smooth (Basic & Advanced vibration theory)
This course offers a study of vehicle vibration specific to wheel speed.
The student will learn basic vibration terminology and vibration theory,
Shop activities include the measurement of Road Force Variation, wheel
runout and balance. Additional diagnostic tools are discussed.
HDT Alignment 2 (Advanced Alignment)
The student will understand the cause and affect of basic alignment
angles relative to ride quality, performance and tire life. Classroom and
shop practice are used to learn the proper use of diagnostic alignment
angles. Additional adjustment techniques and alignment system
operation are explored in both the classroom and lab environment.
Busses and RVs are discussed.
