Standard Procedure - Wheel Alignment
NOTE:
The front and rear wheel alignment must be checked and adjusted to preferred specifications with vehicle at curb height rather than at design height.
- Correctly position vehicle on wheel alignment equipment per equipment manufacturer's recommendations. Perform a pre-wheel alignment inspection.
- Measure vehicles curb height. See appropriate CURB HEIGHT measurement procedure. Attach wheel alignment equipment following equipment manufacturer's instructions. Align vehicle starting with rear suspension, then proceeding to front suspension. Always set toe last. Start with camber and caster angle.
NOTE:
When front and rear height checking fixture is installed on wheels, they must be positioned at very bottom of wheel inner flange. This is required to ensure height checking fixtures are parallel to bottom surface of frame rails, which is required to achieve an accurate vehicle curb height measurement.
