WHEEL ALIGNMENT
R-6prose procedurePre-Inspection
- 1Check the tire inflations, and adjust to the recommended pressure if necessary.
- 2Inspect the front wheel bearing paly and correct if necessary.
- 3Inspect the wheel and tire runouts.
- 4Inspect the ball joints and steering linkage for excessive looseness.
- 5The vehicle must be on level ground and carry no luggage or passengers.
- 6Measure the height from the center of the wheel to the fender brim. The difference between left and right must not exceed 10mm (0.31 in), and the difference between front and rear must be 20mm ± 10mm (0.62 ± 0.31 in).
