Alignment: Service and Repair
Curb Height Measurement
The wheel alignment is to be checked and all alignment adjustments made with the vehicle at its required curb height specification. Vehicle height is
to be checked with the vehicle on a flat, level surface, preferably a vehicle alignment rack. The tires are to be inflated to the recommended pressure.
All tires are to be the same size as standard equipment. Vehicle height is checked with the fuel tank full of fuel, and no passenger or luggage
compartment load. Vehicle height is not adjustable. If the measurement is not within specifications, inspect the vehicle for bent or weak suspension
components. Compare the parts tag on the suspect coil spring(s) to the parts book and the vehicle sales code, checking for a match. Once removed
from the vehicle, compare the coil spring height to a correct new or known good coil spring. The heights should vary if the suspect spring is weak.
1. Measure from the inboard edge of the wheel opening fender lip directly above the wheel center (spindle), to the floor or alignment rack surface.
2. When measuring, the maximum left-to-right differential is not to exceed 12.5 mm (0.5 inch).
3. Compare the measurements to the specifications.
