WHEEL ALIGNMENT PROCEDURES
Note. Manufacturer recommends using commercially available computerized 4-wheel alignment equipment. Follow equipment manufacturer's instructions to obtain current vehicle alignment settings. Use following procedures for necessary adjustments. Ensure suspension has not been modified.
CASTER ADJUSTMENT
Note. On Accord and Prelude, DO NOT use more than 2 shims. If more than 2 shims are required to adjust caster angle, check for bent or damaged suspension components.
RIDING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
Before adjusting alignment, check riding height. Check riding height with vehicle on level floor and tires properly inflated. Ensure passenger and luggage compartments are unloaded. Bounce vehicle several times, and allow suspension to settle. Visually inspect vehicle from front to rear and from side to side for signs of abnormal height.
Measure riding height. (Scheme 2)or (Scheme 3). Riding height between left and right sides of vehicle should vary less than 1" (25.4 mm). If riding height is not within specification, check suspension components and repair or replace them as necessary.
