PRE-INSPECTION

1. Check the tire inflation and bring it to the recommended pressure.
2. Inspect the wheel and tire runout.
3. The vehicle must be on level ground and have no luggage or passenger load.
4. Check that the suspension is correctly adjusted.
5. The difference in height from the center of the wheel to the fender rim between the left and right sides should be within 10 mm ( 0.39 in ).

TOTAL TOE-IN






Inspection

1. Raise the rear of the vehicle until the tires clear the ground.
