This operation should be carried out on a flat level surface and in accordance with the instructions for the particular wheel alignment gauges used (Dunlop, Optiflex, Churchill, etc.).
For steering geometry specifications (castor/camber and toe setting) see General Specifications.
Before carrying out any steering geometry adjustments, the following checks must be made:
  • Examine all suspension and steering components to ensure that there are no signs of damage or wear.
  • Check and, if necessary, adjust tyre pressures to specification.
  • Ensure the vehicle is at kerb weight and that the spare wheel, jack and vehicle tools are stowed in their designated positions. Additional tools or goods should be removed from the vehicle.
  • `Bounce' the vehicle body to ensure the suspension is in its natural position.
