Front Subframe: Testing and Inspection



Checking Frame Alignment





Inspect the frame-to-body alignment by inserting a guide pin or drill bit into the frame-to-body guide pin holes (1). If the guide pins do not fit, the frame is not correctly aligned with the body. Refer to Frame Replacement in order to realign the frame.
