Wheel Arch Height
- Park the vehicle on a level surface.
- Set the vehicle under "curb weight" condition. (Make the luggage compartment empty, install the spare tire, jack and service tools, and top up the fuel tank.)
- Set the steering wheel in a straight-ahead position, and stabilize the suspensions by moving the vehicle straight more than 5 m (16 ft).
- Suspend a thread from wheel arch (point "A" shown in Fig 1 ) to determine the point directly above the center of wheel.
- Measure the distance between the point "A" and the center of wheel.
