Rear Wheel Alignment: Inspection

  1. MEASURE VEHICLE HEIGHT (See  INSPECTION  ) 
  2. INSTALL CAMBER-CASTER-KINGPIN GAUGE OR POSITION VEHICLE ON WHEEL ALIGNMENT TESTER 

    Follow the specific instructions of the equipment manufacturer.

  3. INSPECT CAMBER 

    Camber: 

    CAMBER SPECIFICATION

    Camber Right-Left Error -0°43' +/- 45' (-0.72° +/- 0.75°) 45' (0.75°) or less

    If the measured value is not within the specified value, inspect the suspension parts for damage and/or wear and replace them if necessary because camber is not adjustable.
