Body Misalignment Check




Body Misalignment Check

1. NOTICE: Do not attempt to correct any serious misalignment with one pulling/pushing operation. Damage to the structure may occur.

NOTE: All body alignment measurements are made without trim and from metal to metal.

To check the body alignment, take 2 opposite diagonal measurements between the front, center or rear pillars. Take the measurements between reference points, such as crease lines or weld joints which are diagonally opposite each other on the 2 pillars being measured.
