2891737 - 4450A90 rear wheel alignment - check using optical equipment

The rear wheel alignment should be checked after the components which affect the wheel geometry have been subjected to the following checks:

  • tyre inflation pressure;
  • the eccentricity and the orthogonality of the wheel rims should not exceed 3 mm;
  • wheel bearing end float;
Carry out the preliminary checks on the vehicle and remove any loads transported.Position the vehicle (in running order) on a lift with test equipment.Check the alignment of the rear wheels.
The rear suspension consists of a rigid axle and therefore the wheel alignment cannot be altered. If the rear wheels are not aligned, check the suspension track control arms and the bodyshell.
