FLOOR JACK
Place floor jack on vehicle support points shown. (Scheme 4)
Scheme 4
EMERGENCY JACKING
Place manufacturer-supplied jack under reinforced support points of sill between front and rear wheels. Safety stands may also be placed at these points. (Scheme 4)
HOIST
Place lift blocks under reinforced support points of sill between front and rear wheels. (Scheme 4)
Front Suspension
- Inspect tires for wear and proper inflation. Inspect front wheel bearings for looseness. Measure wheel runout. Wheel runout should not exceed .04" (1.0 mm).
- Inspect front suspension components for looseness. Ensure front shock absorbers operate properly. Measure vehicle riding height. See «RIDING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT»(ref-62221-S09253247032001100400000) .
- Measure camber of each front wheel. See «WHEEL ALIGNMENT SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-62221-S40367141162001100400000) . If camber is not within specification, inspect front suspension components. Replace any components that are worn or damaged. Camber is not adjustable.
Rear Suspension
Inspect tires for wear and proper inflation. Measure camber of both rear wheels. See WHEEL ALIGNMENT SPECIFICATIONS . If camber is not within specification, inspect rear suspension components. Replace any components that are worn or damaged. Rear camber is not adjustable.
Scheme 5
- Ensure riding height, camber, and steering axis inclination are correct. See the following: «RIDING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT»(ref-62221-S09253247032001100400000) . «CAMBER ADJUSTMENT»(ref-62221-S31314303512001100400000) . «STEERING AXIS INCLINATION»(ref-62221-S30593594042001100400000) .
- Measure caster of each front wheel. See «WHEEL ALIGNMENT SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-62221-S40367141162001100400000) . If caster is not within specification, inspect related front suspension components. Replace any components that are worn or damaged. Front caster is not adjustable.
STEERING AXIS INCLINATION
Ensure riding height and camber are correct. Measure steering axis inclination of each front wheel. See the following
- «RIDING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT»(ref-62221-S09253247032001100400000) .
- «CAMBER ADJUSTMENT»(ref-62221-S31314303512001100400000) .
- «WHEEL ALIGNMENT SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-62221-S40367141162001100400000) .
If steering axis inclination is not within specification, inspect related front suspension components. Replace any components that are worn or damaged. Steering axis inclination is not adjustable.
- Ensure riding height, camber, steering axis inclination, and caster are correct. Ensure front wheels are in straight-ahead position. See the following: «RIDING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT»(ref-62221-S09253247032001100400000) . «CAMBER ADJUSTMENT»(ref-62221-S31314303512001100400000) . «STEERING AXIS INCLINATION»(ref-62221-S30593594042001100400000) . «CASTER ADJUSTMENT»(ref-62221-S30034350822001100400000) .
- Bounce both ends of vehicle several times to settle suspension. Measure toe-in. See «WHEEL ALIGNMENT SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-62221-S40367141162001100400000) . If necessary, adjust toe-in by changing length of tie rods. Length of tie rods must be equal within .06" (1.5 mm) after adjustment.
- Ensure rear camber is correct. See «CAMBER ADJUSTMENT»(ref-62221-S31314303512001100400000) under WHEEL ALIGNMENT PROCEDURES. Bounce both ends of vehicle several times to settle suspension. Adjust lengths of adjuster tubes so both are equal within.04" (1.0 mm). (Scheme 6)
- Measure toe-in. See «WHEEL ALIGNMENT SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-62221-S40367141162001100400000). If necessary, adjust length of each adjuster tube equally to adjust toe-in.
Scheme 6
TOE-OUT ON TURNS
- Ensure steering wheel is in straight-ahead position. Raise front of vehicle. Place turning radius gauges beneath front wheels. Lower front of vehicle.
- Rotate steering wheel fully right and left, observing turning radius on both wheels. See «WHEEL ALIGNMENT SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-62221-S40367141162001100400000) . If toe-out on turns is not within specification, inspect related front suspension components. Replace any components that are worn or damaged.
