FRONT ALIGNMENT 3A-3

Inspection
Before making any adjustments affecting caster, camber or
toe-in, the following front end inspection should be made.
1. Inspect the tires for proper inflation pressure. Refer to
Main Data and Specifications in Wheel and Tire System
section.
2. Make sure that the vehicle is unlade condition (Withno
passenger or loading).
3. Make sure that the spare tire is installed at the normal
position.
4. Inspect the front wheel bearings for proper adjustment.
Refer to Front Hub and Disc Overhaul in Suspension
section.
5. Inspect the ball joints and tie rod ends. If excessive
looseness is noted, correct before adjusting. Refer to
Steering Linkage in this section.
6. Inspect the wheel and tires for run-out. Refer to Wheel
Replacement in Wheel and Tire System section.
7. Inspect the trim height. If not within specifications, the
correction must be made before adjusting caster.
8. Inspect the steering unit for looseness at the frame.
9. Inspect shock absorbers for leaks or any noticeable noise.
Refer to Shock Absorber in Suspension section.
10. Inspect the control arms or stabilizer bar attachment fo
r
looseness. Refer to Suspension section.
11. Inspect the front end alignment using alignment equipment.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
12. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
