Measuring Wheel Alignment

Important: This vehicle requires a four wheel alignment. Set the rear wheel alignment angles first to obtain proper front alignment angles.

1. Following the manufacturer's instructions to install alignment equipment.
2. Prior to checking alignment perform the following actions:
- Jounce the front bumper 3 times
- Jounce the rear bumper 3 times
3. Measure and record the alignment angles. Refer to Wheel Alignment Specifications.

Important: When making adjustments to the vehicle set the left side to specifications first. Use the actual readings on the left side as targets for the right side to achieve a minimal cross variance.

4. Make the adjustments that are necessary.
5. Check toe AFTER changing Camber.
6. Check for damaged suspension members if proper specifications cannot be obtained.
