Assuming no worn parts (we don't know how many miles on it, or if chassis lubrication has been done as it should) there isn't much to a front end "alignment" on that chassis.
With its solid front axle, CAMBER can only be changed by bending the solid axle.
Caster can only be changed by adding/subtracting solid metal shims (and caster is really not a significant factor when it comes to tire wear)
Toe- IN is really the only normal "adjustment". And, it can be checked with nothing more than a tape measure. No exotic machinery needed.
Yes, to check rear axle to frame alignment to insure that the coach is not "dog tracking" which can also affect tire wear, is a little more complex.
