ChecksAction
Check the tires for proper inflation pressures and normal
tread wear.Inflate the tires to the proper tire pressure. Replace the
tires as needed.
Check the wheel bearings for looseness.Tighten the axle nut to the proper specification. Replace
the strut wheel bearing as needed.
Check for loose ball joints and tie rod ends.Tighten the ball joints and the tie rods.
Check the runout of the wheels and the tires.Measure and correct the tire runout.
Check the vehicle trim heights.Correct the trim heights. Make the correction before ad-
justing the toe.
Check for loose rack and pinion mounting.Tighten the mounting brackets for the rack and pinion as-
sembly.
Check for improperly operating struts.Replace the strut assembly.
Check for loose control arms.Tighten the control arm attachment bolts. Replace the con-
trol arm bushings as needed.
FRONT TOE ADJUSTMENT
1. Disconnect the outer tie rods from the knuckle as-
semblies. Refer to Section 6C, Power Steering
Gear.
2. Turn the right and the left outer tie rods and the ad-
juster nuts to align the toe to 0.0 ± 0.10 degree.
3. Reconnect the outer tie rods to the knuckle assem-
blies. Refer to Section 6C, Power Steering Gear.
Notice : In this adjustment, the right and the left tie rods
must be equal in length, or the tires will wear unevenly.FRONT CAMBER AND CASTER
CHECK
The front camber and caster are not adjustable. Refer to
”Wheel Alignment Specifications” in this section. Jounce
the bumper three times before measuring the camber or
the caster in order to prevent an incorrect reading. If the
front camber or caster measurements deviate from the
specifications, locate and replace or repair any damaged,
loose, bent, dented, or worn suspension part. If the prob-
lem is body related, repair the body.
REAR CAMBER CHECK
The rear camber is not adjustable. Refer to ”Wheel Align-
ment Specifications” in this section. If the rear camber
deviates from the specification, locate the cause and cor-
rect it. If damaged, loose, bent, dented, or worn suspen-
sion parts are found, they should be repaired or replaced.
If the problem is body related, repair the body.

2B – 10IWHEEL ALIGNMENT
DAEWOO V–121 BL4
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AND SYSTEM OPERATION
FOUR WHEEL ALIGNMENT
The first responsibility of engineering is to design safe
steering and suspension systems. Each component must
be strong enough to withstand and absorb extreme pun-
ishment. Both the steering system and the front and the
rear suspension must function geometrically with the body
mass.
The steering and the suspension systems require that the
front wheels self–return and that the tire rolling effort and
the road friction be held to a negligible force in order to al-
low the customer to direct the vehicle with the least effort
and the most comfort.
A complete wheel alignment check should include mea-
surements of the rear toe and camber.
Four–wheel alignment assures that all four wheels will be
running in precisely the same direction.
When the vehicle is geometrically aligned, fuel economy
and tire life are at their peak, and steering and perfor-
mance are maximized.
TOE
Toe–in is the turning in of the tires, while toe–out is the
turning out of the tires from the geometric centerline or
thrust line. The toe ensures parallel rolling of the wheels.
The toe serves to offset the small deflections of the wheel
support system which occur when the vehicle is rolling for-
ward. The specified toe angle is the setting which achieves
0 degrees of toe when the vehicle is moving.
Incorrect toe–in or toe–out will cause tire wear and re-
duced fuel economy. As the individual steering and sus-
pension components wear from vehicle mileage, addition-
al toe will be needed to compensate for the wear.
Always correct the toe dimension last.
CASTER
Caster is the tilting of the uppermost point of the steering
axis either forward or backward from the vertical when
viewed from the side of the vehicle. A backward tilt is posi-
tive, and a forward tilt is negative. Caster influences direc-
tional control of the steering but does not affect tire wear.
Weak springs or overloading a vehicle will affect caster.
One wheel with more positive caster will pull toward the
center of the car. This condition will cause the car to move
or lean toward the side with the least amount of positive
caster. Caster is measured in degrees and is not adjust-
able.
CAMBER
Camber is the tilting of the top of the tire from the vertical
when viewed from the front of the vehicle. When the tires
tilt outward, the camber is positive. When the tires tilt in-
ward, the camber is negative. The camber angle is mea-
sured in degrees from the vertical. Camber influences
both directional control and tire wear.
If the vehicle has too much positive camber, the outside
shoulder of the tire will wear. If the vehicle has too much
negative camber, the inside shoulder of the tire will wear.
Camber is not adjustable.
STEERING AXIS INCLINATION
Steering Axis Inclination (SAI) is the tilt at the top of the
steering knuckle from the vertical. Measure the SAI angle
from the true vertical to a line through the center of the strut
and the lower ball joint as viewed from the front of the ve-
hicle.
SAI helps the vehicle track straight down the road and as-
sists the wheel back into the straight ahead position. SAI
on front wheel drive vehicles should be negative.
INCLUDED ANGLE
The included angle is the angle measured from the cam-
ber angle to the line through the center of the strut and the
lower ball joint as viewed from the front of the vehicle.
The included angle is calculated in degrees. Most align-
ment racks will not measure the included angle directly. To
determine the included angle, subtract the negative or add
the positive camber readings to the Steering Axis Inclina-
tion (SAI).
SCRUB RADIUS
The scrub radius is the distance between true vertical and
the line through the center of the strut and lower ball joint
to the road surface. Scrub radius is built into the design of
the vehicle. Scrub radius is not adjustable.
SETBACK
The setback is the distance in which one front hub and
bearing assembly may be rearward of the other front hub
and bearing assembly. Setback is primarily caused by a
road hazard or vehicle collision.
TURNING ANGLE
The turning angle is the angle of each front wheel to the
vertical when the vehicle is making a turn.
