Wheel Alignment – Don't Panic! With this book, we'll put an end to crooked steering wheels and wasting time by readjusting cars over and over again - and behold: All taken out of daily workshop life, comprehensible, entertaining. Small quizzes, inserted all over the book, let you know rightaway whether you got the point or need to reread some.
· Properties of the dynamic chassis: Toe, camber, and everything after.
· Measurment technologies: From a straight aluminum bar to touchless automatic
· Runout compensation: Why and how, risk and benefit
· Four Steps to a Straight Steering Wheel
· Typical adjustment errors and the consequences
· Many practical examples from real life adjustment encounters
· Chassis values: Accident damage or tricky intention of the designer?
· Fixed and dynamic specs: Ride height measurement PSA, BMW, and Renault
· Sophisticated Kinematics: VAG toe curve / S-point adjustment
· Mercedes procedure: Why ROMESS and toe pressure bar are a good idea
