30Angles checking principle
PRELIMINARY CHECKING
Before starting the steering angles checking, it will be necessary to check the following points
and exclude the possible non-conformities.
1. Tires and rims checking, regarding: - type and dimension;
- inflating pressure;
- wear de gree.
2. Joints : - elastic bearings and bushings condition;
- ball joints clearance;
- bearing clearance;
- steering wheel column clearance.
3. Tires runout and axial runout (compensation is to be performed by means of the reading
instruments);
4. Dimensions symmetry under carriage body (suspension condition).
5. Manufacturer’s method : each vehicle manufactu rer is prescribing the checking conditions,
loading repartition on axles, under carriage body dimensions presentation.

Characteristics
WHEELS
The wheels identification marking is repre sented in two ways: -engraved marking for steel rims
- cast marking for aluminum rims
The marking enables acknowledgment of the main wheels dimensions criteria.
This marki ng may be:
- Complete Example : 5.5 J 14 4 CH 43 , or
- Simplified
Example: 5.5 J 14
The wheel attachment holes are situated on a diameter of 100 mm.
Maximum axial runout : to be measured in points P1 and P2.
Maximum radial runout : to be measured in points G1 and G2.
