2. Check the brake disc for scoring and damage.
3. Check the carrier for cracks.

Loosen wheel nutsCheck the wheel nuts.
Tighten to specification.
Damaged or uneven tire wear Spin the tire and Check for abnormal
tire wear or damage. Install a new tire
as necessary.
Tire shimmy or shake - occurs at
lower speeds Wheel/tire out of balance
Uneven tire wear
Check for abnormal tire wear. Install a
new tire as necessary.

tire Perform a radial runout test of the
wheel and tire.
Install a new tire as necessary.
Worn or damaged wheel studs or
elongate stud holes Inspect the wheel studs and wheels.
Install new components as necessary.
Excessive lateral runout of the wheel
or tire Perform a lateral runout test of the
wheel and tire.

c.Inspect the tire wear pattern.
● Do the tires have an abnormal wear pattern ?
→ YES
Correct the condition that caused the abnormal wear. Install new tire(s).
Test the system for normal operation.
→ NO
Go to
TIRE ROTATION DIAGNOSIS a.Spin the tires slowly and watch for signs of lateral runout.
b. Spin the tires slowly and watch for signs of radial runout.
● Are there signs of visual runout ?
→ YES
Go to
→ NO
Check the wheel and tire balance.
Correct as necessary. Test the system for normal operation.
RADIAL RUNOUT CHECK ON THE TIRE Measure the radial runout of the wheel and tire assembly. A typical
specification for total radial runout is 1.15mm (0.059 inch).
● Is the radial runout within specifications ?
→ YES
Go to C8.
→ NO
Go to C6.
RADIAL RUNOUT CHECK ON THE WHEEL Measure the radial runout of the wheel. A typical specification for total radial
runout is 1.14mm (0.045 inch.).
● Is the radial runout within specifications ?
→ YES
Install a new tire. Test the system for normal operation.
→ NO
Go to C7.
CHECK THE HUB/BRAKE DISC OR DRUM PILOT RUNOUT OR BOLT CIRCLE RUNOUT Measure the pilot or bolt circle runout. A typical specification for radial
runout is :
