Inspection and AdjustmentINFOID:0000000009460626
INSPECTION
Make sure the mounting conditions (looseness, back lash) of each component and component conditions
(wear, damage) are normal.
LOWER BALL JOINT END PLAY
1. Set front wheels in a straight-ahead position. Do not depress brake pedal.
2. Place an iron bar or similar tool between upper link and steering knuckle.
3. Measure axial end play by prying it up and down.Refer to FSU-26, "Ball Joint"
.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage ball joint boot. Do not damage the installation position by applying
excessive force.
SHOCK ABSORBER
Check for oil leakage, damage and repl ace if malfunction is detected.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT
Description
Measure wheel alignment under unladen conditions.
NOTE:
"Unladen conditions" means that fuel, engine coolant, and lubricant are full. Spare tire, jack, hand tools and
mats are in designated positions.
General Information and Recommendations
• A four-wheel thrust alignment should be performed.
- This type of alignment is re commended for any NISSAN vehicle.
- The four-wheel "thrust" process helps ensure that t he vehicle is properly aligned and the steering wheel is
centered.
- The alignment rack itself should be capable of accepting any NISSAN vehicle.
- The rack should be checked to ensure that it is level.
• Make sure the machine is properly calibrated.
- Your alignment equipment should be regularly ca librated in order to give correct information.
- Check with the manufacturer of your specific equi pment for their recommended Service/Calibration Sched-
ule.
Preliminary Check
Check the following:
1. Tires for improper air pressure and wear.
2. Road wheels for runout. Refer to WT-60, "Road Wheel"
.
3. Wheel bearing axial end play. Refer to FAX-27, "Wheel Bearing"
.
4. Transverse link ball joint axial end play. Refer to FSU-11, "Removal and Installation"
.
5. Shock absorber operation.
6. Each mounting part of axle and suspension for looseness and deformation.
7. Each of suspension member, shock absorber, upper link and transverse link for cracks, deformation and other damage.
8. Vehicle height (posture).
Alignment Process
IMPORTANT:
Use only the alignment specificati ons listed in this Service Manual.
• When displaying the alignment settings, m any alignment machines use "indicators" Do not use these indi-
cators. : (Green/red, plus or minus, Go/No Go).
- The alignment specifications programmed into your machine that operate these indicators may not be cor-
rect.

Gap Adjustment (Front and Rear)
1. Open sunshade (1). : Front
2. Tilt glass lid up.
3. Loosen glass lid bolts (A) (two each on LH and RH sides), then tilt glass lid down ( ).
NOTE:
LH side shown; RH side similar.
4. Manually adjust glass lid from outside of vehicle until gaps A-A
and C-C are within specification.
NOTE:
Temporarily loosely tighten glass lid bolts to prevent movement
between each adjustment.
5. Tilt glass lid up and down several times using moonr oof switch to check that it operates smoothly.
6. Tilt glass lid up and tighten bolts. NOTE:
First tighten left front bolt, then right rear bolt on glass lid to prevent uneven torque while tightening

Gap Adjustment (Sides)
The moonroof unit assembly is mounted on locator pi ns and adjustment from side to side cannot be per-
formed.
Surface Height Adjustment
1. Tilt glass lid up and down several times using moonr oof switch to check that it operates smoothly.
2. Check height difference between roof surface and glas s lid surface, then compare to specifications.
3. If necessary, adjust height difference by using the following procedure.
a. Loosen glass lid bolts.
b. Manually raise/lower moonroof lid assembly until height difference is within specification.
c. Tilt glass lid up and down several times using moonr oof switch to check that it operates smoothly.
