WHEEL ALIGNMENT 2B – 5
DAEWOO V–121 BL4
VIBRATION DIAGNOSIS
Wheel imbalance causes most highway speed vibration
problems. A vibration can remain after dynamic balancing
because:
S A tire is out of round.
S A rim is out of round.
S A tire stiffness variation exists.
Measuring tire and wheel free runout will uncover only part
of the problem. All three causes, known as loaded radial
runout, must be checked using method of substituting
known good tire and wheel assemblies on the problem ve-
hicle.
Low–speed vibrations, which occur below 64 km/h (40
mph), are usually caused by runout. High–speed vibra-
tions, which occur above 64 km/h (40 mph), can be caused
by either imbalance or runout.
Preliminary Checks
Prior to performing any work, always road test the car and
perform a careful visual inspection for:
S Obvious tire and wheel runout.
S Obvious drive axle runout.
S Improper tire inflation.
S Incorrect trim height.
S Bent or damaged wheels.
S Debris build–up on the tire or the wheel.
S Irregular or excessive tire wear.
S Improper tire bead seating on the rim.
S Imperfections in the tires, including: tread deforma-
tions, separations, or bulges from impact damage.
Slight sidewall indentations are normal and will not
affect ride quality.
Tire Balancing
Balance is the easiest procedure to perform and should be
done first if the vibration occurs at high speeds. Do an off–
vehicle, two–plane dynamic balance first to correct any im-
balance in the tire and wheel assembly.
An on–vehicle finish balance will correct any brake drum,
rotor, or wheel cover imbalance. If balancing does not cor-
rect the high–speed vibration, or if the vibration occurs at
low speeds, runout is the probable cause.
Runout
Runout can be caused by the tire, the wheel, or the way
the wheel is attached to the vehicle. To investigate the pos-
sibility of wheel runout, refer to the following procedures
as well as the wheel runout diagnosis chart in this section:
1. If runout is suspected, measure the on–vehicle free
lateral and free radial runout of the tire and wheel
assembly. Refer to Section 2E, Tires and Wheels.
Both the free lateral and the free radial runout
should be less than 1.5 mm (0.06 inch). If either
measurement exceeds this number, proceed to
Step 2.
2. Mount the tire and the wheel on a dynamic balanc-
ing machine and remeasure the free lateral and the
free radial runout. Record the amount of the free
lateral and the free radial runout and the location of
the highest measurement. Refer to Section 2E,
Tires and Wheels. If the free radial or the free later-
al runout exceeds 1.3 mm (0.05 inch) at the tire
tread, proceed to Step 4.
3. Measure the wheel runout. Refer to Section 2E,
Tires and Wheels. If the wheel exceeds specifica-
tions, replace it.
4. Deflate the tire and match–mount the high radial
runout point of the tire to the low radial runout point
of the wheel. Reinflate the tire and mount it on the
dynamic balancing machine. Measure and record
the free radial and the free lateral runout and their
locations. In many cases, match mounting the tire
on the wheel will bring the tire and wheel assem-
bly’s free runout into an acceptable range of 1.3
mm (0.05 inch) or less.
5. If the free runout of the tire and wheel assembly is
1.3 mm (0.05 inch) or less when it was measured
off the vehicle, yet exceeds 1.3 mm (0.05 inch)
when measured on the vehicle, the attachment of
the tire and wheel assembly to the hub is the prob-
able cause of the vibration. Rotate the assembly’s
two wheel studs and recheck the runout. Refer
toSection 2E, Tires and Wheels. Several positions
may have to be tried to find the best location for the
studs.
6. If the tire and wheel assembly free runout cannot
be reduced to 1.3 mm (0.05 inch) or less, remove
the assembly.
1) Measure the wheel stud runout using a dial
indicator set with a magnetic base.
2) Zero the dial indicator set button on one stud.
3) Gently lift the set button off the stud. Rotate
the flange to position the next stud against the
dial indicator set.
4) Record the runout of all the studs. The dial in-
dicator should read zero when it is repositioned
on the first stud that was checked.
5) If the runout exceeds 0.76 mm (0.03 inch), the
hub or the hub and bearing assembly should
be replaced.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AND SYSTEM OPERATION
FOUR WHEEL ALIGNMENT
The first responsibility of engineering is to design safe
steering and suspension systems. Each component must
be strong enough to withstand and absorb extreme pun-
ishment. Both the steering system and the front and the
rear suspension must function geometrically with the body
mass.
The steering and the suspension systems require that the
front wheels self–return and that the tire rolling effort and
the road friction be held to a negligible force in order to al-
low the customer to direct the vehicle with the least effort
and the most comfort.
A complete wheel alignment check should include mea-
surements of the rear toe and camber.
Four–wheel alignment assures that all four wheels will be
running in precisely the same direction.
When the vehicle is geometrically aligned, fuel economy
and tire life are at their peak, and steering and perfor-
mance are maximized.
TOE
Toe–in is the turning in of the tires, while toe–out is the
turning out of the tires from the geometric centerline or
thrust line. The toe ensures parallel rolling of the wheels.
The toe serves to offset the small deflections of the wheel
support system which occur when the vehicle is rolling for-
ward. The specified toe angle is the setting which achieves
0 degrees of toe when the vehicle is moving.
Incorrect toe–in or toe–out will cause tire wear and re-
duced fuel economy. As the individual steering and sus-
pension components wear from vehicle mileage, addition-
al toe will be needed to compensate for the wear.
Always correct the toe dimension last.
CASTER
Caster is the tilting of the uppermost point of the steering
axis either forward or backward from the vertical when
viewed from the side of the vehicle. A backward tilt is posi-
tive, and a forward tilt is negative. Caster influences direc-
tional control of the steering but does not affect tire wear.
Weak springs or overloading a vehicle will affect caster.
One wheel with more positive caster will pull toward the
center of the car. This condition will cause the car to move
or lean toward the side with the least amount of positive
caster. Caster is measured in degrees and is not adjust-
able.
CAMBER
Camber is the tilting of the top of the tire from the vertical
when viewed from the front of the vehicle. When the tires
tilt outward, the camber is positive. When the tires tilt in-
ward, the camber is negative. The camber angle is mea-
sured in degrees from the vertical. Camber influences
both directional control and tire wear.
If the vehicle has too much positive camber, the outside
shoulder of the tire will wear. If the vehicle has too much
negative camber, the inside shoulder of the tire will wear.
Camber is not adjustable.
STEERING AXIS INCLINATION
Steering Axis Inclination (SAI) is the tilt at the top of the
steering knuckle from the vertical. Measure the SAI angle
from the true vertical to a line through the center of the strut
and the lower ball joint as viewed from the front of the ve-
hicle.
SAI helps the vehicle track straight down the road and as-
sists the wheel back into the straight ahead position. SAI
on front wheel drive vehicles should be negative.
INCLUDED ANGLE
The included angle is the angle measured from the cam-
ber angle to the line through the center of the strut and the
lower ball joint as viewed from the front of the vehicle.
The included angle is calculated in degrees. Most align-
ment racks will not measure the included angle directly. To
determine the included angle, subtract the negative or add
the positive camber readings to the Steering Axis Inclina-
tion (SAI).
SCRUB RADIUS
The scrub radius is the distance between true vertical and
the line through the center of the strut and lower ball joint
to the road surface. Scrub radius is built into the design of
the vehicle. Scrub radius is not adjustable.
SETBACK
The setback is the distance in which one front hub and
bearing assembly may be rearward of the other front hub
and bearing assembly. Setback is primarily caused by a
road hazard or vehicle collision.
TURNING ANGLE
The turning angle is the angle of each front wheel to the
vertical when the vehicle is making a turn.
