• Measure diameter of crankshaft pin using suitable tool.
• If measurement is out of standard, measure connecting rod bear-
ing oil clearance. Then use undersize bearing.
OUT-OF-ROUND AND TAPER OF CRANKSHAFT
• Measure dimensions at four di fferent points as shown on each
journal and pin.
• Out-of-roundness is indicated by the difference in dimension
between ″X″ and ″Y″ at ″A″ and ″B″ .
• Taper is indicated by the difference in dimension between ″A ″ and
″ B″ at ″X ″ and ″Y″ .
• If measured value exceeds the standard, correct or replace crankshaft.
• If corrected, measure the bearing oil clearance of the corrected journal or pin. Then select the main bearing or connecting rod bearing.
CRANKSHAFT RUNOUT
• Place a V-block on a precise flat table to support the journals onboth ends of the crankshaft.
• Measure at No. 3 journal using suitable tool.
• While rotating crankshaft, read the movement of the pointer.
• Half of the movement shows the runout.
• If measurement exceeds the limit, replace crankshaft.
CONNECTING ROD BEARING OIL CLEARANCE
Method of Measurement
• Install connecting rod bearings to the connecting rod and cap. Tighten connecting rod bolts to the specified
torque. Refer to EM-83, "
Disassembly and Assembly".
Measure inside diameter of connecting rod bearing.
(Oil clearance) = (Inside diameter of connecting rod bearing) –
(Crankshaft pin diameter)
• If clearance cannot be adjusted wit hin the standard, grind crank-
shaft pin and use undersized bearing. Refer to EM-101, "
How to
Select Piston and Bearing".

• Remove oil and dust on the crankshaft pin and surfaces of eachbearing completely.
• Cut a plastigage slightly shorter than the bearing width, and place
it in the crankshaft axial direction, avoiding oil holes.
• Install the connecting rod beari ngs to the connecting rod and con-
necting rod bearing cap, and tighten the connecting rod bolts to the
specified torque.
CAUTION:
Do not rotate crankshaft with plastigage installed.
• Remove the connecting rod bear ing cap and bearings. Measure
the plastigage width using the scale on the plastigage bag.
NOTE:
The procedure when the measured value exceeds the repair limit is the same as that described in “Method
of Measurement”.
MAIN BEARING OIL CLEARANCE
Method of Measurement
• Install the main bearings to the cylinder block and main bearing cap. Measure the main bearing inside diameter with the bearing
cap bolts tightened to the specified torque. Refer to EM-83, "
Disas-
sembly and Assembly".
(Oil clearance) = (Inside diameter of main bearing) – (Crankshaft
journal diameter)
• If measured value exceeds the repair limit, select main bearings referring to the main bearing inside diame-
ter and crankshaft journal diameter, so that the oil clearance satisfies the standard. Refer to EM-101, "
How
to Select Piston and Bearing".
Method of Using Plastigage
• Remove oil and dust on the crankshaft journal and surfaces of
each bearing completely.
• Cut a plastigage slightly shorter than the bearing width, and place it in crankshaft axial direction, avoiding oil holes.
• Install the main bearings to the cylinder block and main bearing cap, and tighten the main bearing bolts to the specified torque.
CAUTION:
Do not rotate crankshaft with plastigage installed.
• Remove bearing cap and bearings. Measure plastigage width using the scale on the plastigage bag.

• Figure shows M12 bolt.
• Measure bolt diameter ″ d1″ from tip of the bolt to dimension "a".
• Measure bolt diameter ″d2″ from the dimension between tip of the
bolt and dimension ″b ″ as base station to dimension ″c″ .
NOTE:
If a narrower part in the threads is determined by visual check,
measure ″d2″ at that point.
• Calculate the difference between ″d1″ and ″d2″ .

Check front suspension parts for excessive play, cracks, wear and
other damage.
• Shake each front wheel to check for excessive play.If looseness is noted, inspect wheel bearing end play, then check
ball joint end play. Refer to FA X - 6 , "
On-Vehicle Inspection and Ser-
vice" and FSU-10, "Inspection".
• Make sure that the cotter pin is inserted (4WD only).
• Retighten all nuts and bolts to the specified torque.
• Check shock absorber for oil leakage and other damage.
• Check suspension ball joint for grease leakage and ball joint dust cover for cracks and other damage.
Front Wheel AlignmentINFOID:0000000005148109
PRELIMINARY INSPECTION
WARNING:
Always adjust the alignment with the vehicle on a flat surface.
NOTE:
If alignment is out of specificat ion, inspect and replace any damaged or worn suspension parts before making
any adjustments.
1. Check and adjust the wheel alignment with the vehicle under unladen conditions. “Unladen conditions”
means that the fuel, coolant, and lubricant are full; and that the spare tire, jack, hand tools and mats are in
their designated positions.
2. Check the tires for incorrect air pressure and excessive wear.
3. Check the wheels for run out and damage. Refer to WT-47, "
Inspection" .
4. Check the wheel bearing axial end play. Refer to FA X - 6 , "
On-Vehicle Inspection and Service" .
5. Check the shock absorbers for leaks or damage.
6. Check each mounting point of the suspension components for any excessive looseness or damage.
7. Check each link, arm, and the rear suspension member for any damage.
8. Check the vehicle height. Refer to FSU-24, "
Wheelarch Height (Unladen*1)" .
• Verify the level using Consult-III memory register 1103 and set to 0 ± 10 mm (0 ± 0.39 in) as necessary.
GENERAL INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. A Four-Wheel Thrust Alignment should be performed.
• This type of alignment is recommended for any NISSAN vehicle.
• The four-wheel “thrust” process helps ensure that the vehicle is properly aligned and the steering wheel
is centered.
• The alignment machine itself should be ca pable of accepting any NISSAN vehicle.
• The alignment machine should be checked to ensure that it is level. Suspension component

• Check the ball joint for excessive play. Replace the upper or lower link assembly if any of the followingexists:
- Ball joint stud is worn.
- Ball joint is hard to swing.
- Ball joint play in axial directions or end play is excessive.
Swinging Force
NOTE:
Before checking the axial forces and end play, turn the lower ball joint at least 10 revolutions so that the ball
joint is properly broken in.
1. Measure the ball joint swinging force using a suitable tool.
• Measure at the cotter pin hole for upper ball joint as shown.
• Measure at the groove for lower ball joint as shown.
2. Verify the ball joint swinging force is within specification.
Turning Force
Check the turning torque using a suitable tool.
NOTE:
Before checking the axial forces and end play, turn the lower ball
joint at least 10 revolutions so that the ball joint is properly broken in.
Vertical End Play
Check dust cover for damage. Replace it and the cover clamp if necessary.
