Caster

Fig. 1 Caster & camber measurement:





Caster angles are not adjustable, however, the following procedure may be used to ensure caster is within specifications. Ensure tires are properly inflated prior to checking caster angles.
1. Raise front of vehicle and position turning radius gauges under front wheels, then lower vehicle.
2. Install suitable adapter and gauge into center of wheel and measure caster angle, Fig. 1.
3. If caster is not within specifications, inspect suspension components for damage and repair as necessary, then recheck.
