Alignment: Service and Repair
Preliminary Checks

PRELIMINARY CHECKS

When using a wheel alignment tester to inspect front wheel alignment, always position the car on a level surface and the front wheels in the straight
ahead position.

Prior to inspection make sure that the front suspension and steering system are in normal operating condition and that the wheels and tires are free of
deflection and the tires are inflated to specification.

When doing a front end alignment note the following:
-

The front suspension assembly must be free of worn, loose or damaged parts prior to measuring front wheel alignment.

-

Measure wheel alignment by using the special tool.

-

Camber and caster are pre-set at the factory and cannot be adjusted.

-

If camber and caster are not within specifications, replace bent or damaged parts.
