points are indicated by circular dots on the outline of the body. See
Fig. 1
. If floor jack or hoist is employed, extreme care should be
exercised to avoid damaging the outer body shell.

1983-95 WHEEL ALIGNMENT
Pre-Alignment Inspection Procedures
PRE-ALIGNMENT CHECKS
Before making wheel alignment adjustment, perform the following checks:
1. Tires should be equal in size and runout must not be excessive. Tires and wheels should be in balance, and inflated to manufacturer's
specifications.
2. Wheel bearings must be properly adjusted. Steering linkage and suspension must not have excessive looseness. Check for wear in tie rod
ends and ball joints.
3. Steering gear box must not have excessive play. Check and adjust to manufacturer's specifications.
4. Vehicle must be at curb height with full fuel load and spare tire in vehicle. No extra load should be on vehicle.
5. Vehicle must be level with floor and with suspension settled. Jounce front and rear of vehicle several times and allow it to settle to
normal curb height.
6. If steering wheel is not centered with front wheels in straight-ahead position, correct by shortening one tie rod adjusting sleeve and
lengthening opposite sleeve equal amounts.
7. Ensure wheel lug nuts are tightened to torque specifications.

RIDING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
1991-92 WHEEL ALIGNMENT Ford Motor Co. - Riding Height Adjustment
RIDING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
1. Examine vehicle and ensure front or rear end is not higher or lower than normal. Ensure vehicle is level from side to side. Remove any
unusual heavy items before checking suspension.
2. If loading is normal but vehicle is not level, check for spring damage, spring set, or non-standard replacement springs. Repair or replace
as necessary. If in doubt, compare with a new vehicle (if possible).
3. Measure height of fender cutout rim above wheel center at all 4 wheels. Compare left and right side measurements at both front and
rear. See
Fig. 1
. On Festiva, side-to-side variation should not exceed 0.4" (10 mm). These measurements should not be made from
floor, but from center of wheel only, as unequal tire wear could cause a variance.

NOTE:
Before adjusting alignment, check riding height. Riding height must be checked with vehicle on level
floor and tires properly inflated. Bounce vehicle several times and allow suspension to settle.
NOTE:
Specifications for Capri suspension height are not available.
