CL TYPE S V6-3.2L SOHC (2001)
Alignment: By Symptom
Repair Procedure B
1.
Place the vehicle on a commercially available, computerized four-wheel alignment rack, and record the following measurements. Follow the
equipment manufacturer's instructions.
NOTE:
Enter each reading in decimal degrees. Example 30 ' = 0.5°.
2.
If any measurement is out of specification, inspect the suspension for any damage. Repair the damaged components before continuing your
diagnosis.
3.
Determine how the front wheel camber is affecting the pull. Pick the combination of left- and right-front camber that best matches the vehicle you
are repairing, then note the camber thrust direction for that combination:
NOTE:
^
If the camber of both front wheels is negative, but one wheel is grossly more negative than the other, the camber thrust direction will be opposite
the wheel with more negative camber (for example, if the left-front wheel is more negative, the camber thrust direction is right).
^
If the camber of both front wheels is positive, but one wheel is grossly more positive than the other, the camber thrust direction will be the same
as the wheel with more positive camber (for example, if the left-front wheel is more positive, the camber thrust direction is left).
4.
Determine how the camber needs to be adjusted.
