Steering Axis Inclination
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1988 Chevrolet Corvette. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Steering axis inclination is a check for bent or damaged parts, and not a service adjustment. Vehicle must be level and camber should be properly adjusted. See Fig 1 .
- If camber cannot be brought within limits and steering axis inclination is correct, steering knuckle is bent. If camber and steering axis inclination are both incorrect by approximately the same amount, the upper and lower control arms are bent.
CAUTION:
DO NOT
attempt to correct by straightening parts. Damaged parts must be replaced.
