Rear Wheel Alignment

Rear wheel alignment is not adjustable. If the camber and toe angles are not within the specifications, inspect for underbody or rear suspension damage. Refer to Underbody which lists measurement points to determine proper underbody alignment.





After the front wheel alignment is complete, check the rear alignment angles for excessive rear tire wear or if the wheels do not-track properly. Rear wheels should be parallel to and the same distance from the vehicle centerline.

If the tires do riot track correctly after a front wheel alignment, no amount of adjustment will correct the problem. Poor tracking or excessive rear tire wear after a front wheel alignment usually indicates that the axle housing, frame or suspension arms have been bent. Refer to Wheel Alignment Specifications for rear alignment angles.
