Checking and adjusting wheel alignment angles (Chevrolet Cruze J300)

            0

Checking and adjusting the wheel alignment angles is necessary to ensure good stability and control of the vehicle, as well as uniform wear of the tires during operation. Checking and adjusting the wheel alignment angles is performed on special stands according to the instructions for their operation.

Any discrepancy between the actual values measured on the vehicle and the reference values specified below is due to wear and deformation of suspension parts or deformation of the body.

The wheel alignment angles of the vehicle are given in Table 7.1.

ParameterAcceptable value
Front wheel alignment-0,30°±0,75°
Front wheel alignment0,105°±0,167°
Angle of longitudinal inclination of the front wheel steering axis4,65°±0,75°
Rear wheel alignment-1,42°±0,50°
Rear wheel alignment0,00±0,208°

Check wheel alignment angles with the vehicle loaded with 70 kg on each front seat, with the fuel tank half full, with normal air pressure in the tires and no excessive play in the suspension components.

After installing the car on the stand (just before checking the angles) "squeeze" the car's suspension, applying a force of 392-490 N (40-50 kgf) two or three times, directed from top to bottom, to the front bumper. The car's wheels should be parallel to the longitudinal axis of the car.

When checking and adjusting the front wheel alignment angles, first check the caster angle, then the camber angle, and lastly the toe-in.

The longitudinal tilt angle of the front wheel pivot axis is formed by the vertical and the line passing through the middle of the upper support of the telescopic strut and the center of the sphere of the ball joint fixed to the lower arm. The design of the vehicle does not provide for adjustment of the longitudinal tilt angle of the pivot axis. If the angle deviates from the nominal value, replace damaged and deformed parts.



The front wheel camber angle is characterized by the deviation of the average plane of rotation of the wheel from the vertical. The car design does not provide for adjustment of the front wheel camber angle.

Front wheel toe-in is the angle between the plane of rotation of the wheel and the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. Front wheel toe-in is adjusted by changing the length of the steering rods.

The rear wheel alignment angles are set by design and are not adjusted during operation. It is only possible to check the condition of the rear suspension by the alignment angles. The method for checking the rear wheel alignment angles is similar to the method for checking the front wheels.
