REAR-WHEEL ALIGNMENT
Checking
If the rear axle has been subjected to abnormal stresses,
for instance in connection with a collision or other acci-
dent, it must be carefully checked for signs of fracture
or deformation.
Normally, rear wheel alignment does not require adjust-
ment. If, however, the rear axle has been subjected to
such abnormal stresses that faulty alignment of the rear
wheels is suspected, the wheel angles should be checked.
If the wheels are correctly aligned, the angles should be
within the following limits:
Camber 0° i 1°
Toe-in (toe-out) must not exceed:
per wheel 0° 1 3/4°
both wheels together 0° i 10
both wheels together measured
rim-to-rim O i 0.28 in. (7 mm)
Max. difference in wheelbase,
left and right (front wheels
pointing straight ahead) 0.6 in. (15 mm)
On condition that the wheel angles are within the values
stipulated above, the difference in wheelbase between
the left and right sides may amount to a maximum of
0.6 in. (15 mm).

NOTE
Special
wheel-angle measuring equipment is needed
to establish faults in to-in (toe-out).
NOTE
If the difference in wheelbase exceeds 0.2 in. (5
mm), the wheel alignment must be checked. '
Wheel alignment can be incorrect without this af-
fecting the wheelbase.
