Turning Angle Inspection

Use commercially available computerized four wheel alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment (caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the equipment manufacturer's instructions.

  1. Turn the wheel right and left while applying the brake, and measure the turning angle of both wheels.

    Turning angle: 

    Inward: 40° 05'+/-2° 

    Outward: 32° 16' (reference)
