Where did you get the cheat sheet for converting to degrees of tow? How do I figure out what my vehicle is supposed to be?

This is all assuming there is ZERO RUNOUT with the tires and rims.

A neighbour used to do his own wheel alignments on his drive at home ..Get a good wrench to move the bolts on the arms I've encountered a few seized ones might need a blow lamp..I've changed a few tie rod ends but never really done the separate job of alignment
@Shellshock36110 күн бұрын
I'm going to do this tomorrow. This is really good info. Recently I changed steering knuckles and other suspensions parts which required removing the tie rod from the knuckle... Now my wheel is off center. Hopefully this helps

Great video, i recently picked up a laser tape from Bosch that makes this type of alignment super easy.

Thanks for the upload, it is very helpful. Do I need to put anti squeak on the brake pads before I put them on? Thanks

You definitely can! It won’t hurt!
@jc1670cx925 күн бұрын
only steps did not see you do was the metal clips that go over the brake pads did not see you bleed the brake or open the cap on where you refill brake fluid. maybe its not necessary but always see it done on other brake videos. Sorry if im wrong.
@CapOlimar14 күн бұрын
A lot of the videos I've watched they use a tool to slowly compress the piston, so no need to bleed them. Just pump the pedal until firm after installation.

I use a straight edge and a laser level. Then I drive the car close to a wall. I set up my level and laser pointer and mark the spot. Then I back up the car about 10 feet and set up the pointer again and mark the laser spot. I then turn the adjustments on the car so the spots line up. Of course I do the same procedure on both sides. I repeat the entire procedure two or three times until the dots line up perfectly. a little bit time consuming but is very accurate, I took the car to an alignment shop and the readings came out very close to what the spec are. Make sure you calibrate your laser pointer first by rotating it and making the necessary adjustments on the pointer. Of course this method only works as long as you can see the spots like when its a little bit dark ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ - **Level**: Imagine a flat surface, like a table or a floor, where you would typically place objects. - **Laser Pointer**: Visualize a small device that emits a thin beam of light, used for pointing out objects or aligning things accurately. To create this mental image: 1. Picture a flat surface, like a straight edge that you put on the wheel, in our case the wheel that you want to align 2. On top of this surface, place a small, handheld laser pointer. 3. Envision the laser pointer emitting a bright, focused beam of light that extends straight out from the device, creating a visible line or dot on the surface. This visualization can help you imagine a level with a laser pointer on top of it for tasks like aligning objects, checking for levelness, or highlighting specific points.

Why not use a C Clamp
@daringmotorsАй бұрын
On these rear pads you have to screw the caliper in as it is part of the parking brake system if you just try to squeeze with a c-clamp you will end up damaging the caliper and have to replace it
