how wheel alignments are done

THIS IS NOT A HOW-TO VIDEO!!!
THIS IS JUST TO GIVE A NON TECH PERSON AN IDEA OF WHAT GOES ON IN THE ALIGNMENT RACK!!! THERE'S SO MUCH MORE THAT GOES ON IN THE ALIGNMENT RACK THERE'S CAMBER BUSHINGS CAMBER BOLTS SHIMS A LOT OF RUSTED BOLTS PARTS SOMETIMES SHIFTING THE SUBFRAME TO CORRECT CAMBER OR CASTER THERE'S TOE SET THERE'S SHIMMING THE REAR FOR THE SOLID AXLES THE USE OF THE TORCH AND A LOT OF SWEARING AND CUSSING BLOOD SWEAT AND TEARS SOME ARE EASY SOME ARE NOT etc
THIS IS NOT A HOW-TO VIDEO!!!!! 😁

[@Kedodda]

I mean you can bend the axle, and they don't recommend chips anymore due to speed sensors and tone ring misalignment.

[@dewilliams2012]

Alot of cars know don't specify a rear camber and toe adjustment. The machine won't even show you when it is. If your thrust angle is way off, you have to inspect for damaged components. Always check your SAI and cross SAI. If it's out of spec. That when you need to inspect for damage.

[@Kedodda]

@dewilliams2012 If you're using a modern hunter machine you should be putting targets on back, and it will give Camber and toe regardless of if it can be adjusted. It's just gray on the bar graph screen.

That's how a toe set is done. Not a complete alignment, but good procedure I've lost count of the techs I've seen do a caster sweep without the pedal depressor in place.

[@JoeMamasLover69]

I would say that is a complete alignment. Not all cars have anything more then toe adjustments. And like this car not much more then front toe at that. Yes you could shim it but I aint doing that for free. Will you? And most cars if it's off and there is no adjustment usually means something is bent or a bushing is bad or ball joint is toast

[@zachbecklake2303]

@@JoeMamasLover69 this car will also have adjustable camber at the front struts. Rear toe can be adjusted by full contact shims depending on wheel bearing mounting. Front caster will normally have a little bit of adjustment at the upper strut mount and there may be a possibility of a cradle shift to get both camber and caster adjustments also depending on the mounting of the steering/suspension components.

[@tjr8063]

I’m a tech and still kick my own ass every now and again when I forget to compress the pedal

with that alignment machine it will detect if you don't have the pedal depressed when doing a caster sweep and won't let you until you do

[@colbyclemons3917]

@@bentleynorton6843 you don’t necessarily need to use the depressor, it will sense if the wheel is moving and tell you but on must trucks with caster set ~2.75 you don’t need it and I’ve tested with and without the depressor and there’s no difference

I didn't needed to get it Aligned.

[@rikmanders3094]

Just use a tape measure. Measure front axle tyre on front and backside against the opposite front axle tyre difference 1mm towards on front. Drive car to see what side it wants to go to, then in your mind think of whqt wheel to adjust. Thats the way we did it before we had the hunter allignement. Best buy ever for the shop 😅

All you did was set the toe so its (good to go) you didnt adjust anything else, the camber was out by .5° on the right front and the caster was out by .4° on both sides. Granted the toe might be right but the car is still going to scrub the tires going down the road and it will still have a small pull to the right. All it takes it a little bit of extra time to get those adjustments with a better spec. Do the job right or don't do it at all.
