Check and adjust wheel alignment

Check and adjust wheel alignment necessary to ensure a good stability and controllability of the car, as well as uniform tire wear during its operation. Check and adjust the wheel alignment is performed on special stands according to the instructions on their use.

Inconsistency actual values measured on the vehicle, the test values listed below, due to the wear and deformation of the suspension components, the deformation of the body.

Front axle:

the angle of inclination of the longitudinal axis of rotation of the wheels ..... 2 ?� 27 '?� 45'

the angle of inclination of the axis of rotation of the cross-wheel ..... 12 ?� 35 '

camber angle ..... 0 ?� ?� 30 '

toe ..... (2,7 ?� 3) mm

The corners of the rear axle:

.....- camber angle of 31 ?� 48 '?� 30'

toe ..... (3,2 ?� 3) mm

Wheel alignment check on the car with ballast weight of 70 kg on each front seat, with a half-filled fuel tank, normal tire pressure, in the absence of excessive backlash in hardpoints.

After setting the vehicle on the stand, just before checking angles, "prozhmite" suspension of the car, putting two or three times the force of 392-490 N (40-50 kg), directed from the top down, first to the rear bumper, and then to the front. The wheels of a vehicle must be positioned parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle.

Checking the front axle, first determine the angles of the longitudinal and transverse axis tilt wheels turning, then the camber angle and the last to toe.

The angle of inclination of the longitudinal axis of rotation of the front wheel is formed on the vertical side and a line drawn through the middle of the top support strut and the center of the sphere of the ball joint fixed to the lower arm.

The angle of inclination of the transverse pivot axis of the front wheel is formed on a front vertical line and passing through the middle of the upper support strut and the center of the sphere of the spherical bearing attached to the lower arm.

Camber angle deviation is characterized median plane of rotation of the front wheel to the vertical.

The convergence of the front wheels is the angle between the plane of rotation of the front wheels and the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. The convergence of the front wheels is controlled by varying the length of the track rod.

Angles of the rear wheels can be adjusted during operation.

The camber angle of the rear wheels is characterized by the average deviation of the plane of rotation of the rear wheel from the vertical.

The convergence of the rear wheels is the angle between the plane of rotation of the rear wheel and the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. The convergence of the rear wheels is controlled by varying the length of the rear arm.
