Wheel - Alignment Recommendations

Number 87-3-14 Date 4/87
Subject: WHEEL ALIGNMENT


ALL 1987 PONTIAC VEHICLES
Service bulletin 87-3-8 was published to provide a simple, convenient chart of all 1987 model passenger car wheel alignment specifications. It was not meant to imply that resetting was necessary at the dealership. In fact, with today's state-of-the-art factory alignment equipment and procedures, there should be even less need for resetting.

As in the past, alignment should be checked only when a specific customer condition relating to alignment is encountered. Such alignment checking/resetting should not be done until the customer has accumulated at least 500 miles so that suspension geometry has a chance to settle.
