PRE-WHEEL ALIGNMENT INSPECTION
Before starting a wheel alignment on this vehicle, the following inspection and necessary corrections must be completed to ensure proper wheel
alignment.
1. Be sure the fuel tank is full of fuel. If the tank is not full, the reduction in weight will affect the height of the vehicle and the alignment
specifications.
2. The passenger and luggage compartments of the vehicle should be free of any load that is not factory equipment.
3. Check the tires on the vehicle. The tires are to be inflated to the recommended air pressure. All tires must be the correct size and in good
condition, with approximately the same tread wear. See: Wheels and Tires/Tires/Description and Operation
4. Check the front and rear wheels for excessive radial and lateral runout, and imbalance. See: Wheels and Tires/Testing and Inspection See: Wheels
and Tires/Service and Repair/Procedures
5. Inspect the front and rear hub and bearing assemblies for wear.
6. Inspect all suspension components for wear and noise. Check components for correct torque.
7. Inspect the rubber bushings on all suspension components for signs of wear or deterioration.
8. Inspect the control arm ball joints and steering linkage for leaking seals, looseness, roughness, binding or a sticking condition.
9. Inspect front and rear shock assemblies for leaks or any sign of damage. Jounce front and rear of vehicle to determine if the shock absorbers
dampen vehicle motion properly.
