Check the tire size and tire pressure. . Check th( runout of the wheels and t;res,. Check the suspension ball joints. (Hold a wheel withyour hands, and move it up and down and right andleft to check for wobbling.) Inspection Use commercially-available computerized four wheelalignment equipment to measure wheel alignment (cast- er, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the equip-ment manufacturers instructions. Check the caster angle. Caster angle: 210:t 1 lf out of specification, check for bent or damagedsuspension components. 1. 18-4 Camber Inspection Use commercially-available computerized lour wheelalagnment equipment to measure wheel alignment (cast, er, camber, toe, and turning angle).

Example: After the rear toe inspection, the wheel is 2
mm (0.08 in) out of the specification.- Move the arm so the adjusting bolt moves 2 mm
{0.08 in) inward from the position recorded before the
adjustment.- The distance the adjusting bolt is moved should be
equal to the amount out-of-specification.
