• When installing rubber bushings, the final tightening must be carried out under unladen conditions with tires
on ground. Spilled oil might shorten the life of rubber bushings. Be sure to wipe off any spilled oil.
- Unladen conditions mean that fuel, engine coolant and lubricant are full. Spare tire, jack, hand tools and
mats are in designated positions.
• After servicing suspension parts, be sure to check wheel alignment.
• Self-lock nuts are not reusable. Always use new ones when installing. Since new self-lock nuts are pre-oiled,
tighten as they are.

COMPONENT PART
Check the mounting conditions (looseness, backlash) of each component and component conditions (wear,
damage) are normal.
Ball Joint Axial End Play
Move axle side of suspension arm in the axial direction by hand.
Check there is no end play.
CAUTION:
• Never depress brake pedal when measuring.
• Never perform with tires on level ground.
• Be careful not to damage ball joint boot. Never damage the
installation position by applying excessive force.
SHOCK ABSORBER
Check for oil leakage and damage. Replace it if necessary.

WHEEL ALIGNMENT
WHEEL ALIGNMENT
Inspection
INFOID:0000000006938896
DESCRIPTION
Measure wheel alignment under unladen conditions.
NOTE:
“Unladen conditions” means that fuel, engine coolant, and lubricant are full. Spare tire, jack, hand tools and
mats are in designated positions.
PRELIMINARY CHECK
Check the following:
• Tires for improper air pressure and wear. Refer to
• Road wheels for runout.
• Wheel bearing axial end play. Refer to
.
• Ball joint axial end play of suspension arm. Refer to
• Shock absorber operation.
• Each mounting point of axle and suspension for looseness and deformation.
• Each of front lower link, rear lower link, radius rod, rear suspension member, suspension arm and shock
absorber for cracks, deformation, and other damage.
• Vehicle height (posture).
GENERAL INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
• A four-wheel thrust alignment should be performed.
- This type of alignment is recommended for any NISSAN/INFINITI vehicle.
- The four-wheel “thrust” process helps ensure that the vehicle is properly aligned and the steering wheel is
centered.
- The alignment rack itself should be capable of accepting any NISSAN/INFINITI vehicle.
- The rack should be checked to ensure that it is level.
• Make sure the machine is properly calibrated.
- Your alignment equipment should be regularly calibrated in order to give correct information.
- Check with the manufacturer of your specific equipment for their recommended Service/Calibration Sched-
ule.
ALIGNMENT PROCESS
IMPORTANT:
Use only the alignment specifications listed in this Service Manual.
• When displaying the alignment settings, many alignment machines use “indicators”: (Green/red, plus or
minus, Go/No Go). Never use these indicators.
- The alignment specifications programmed into your machine that operate these indicators may not be cor-
rect.
- This may result in an ERROR.
• Most camera-type alignment machines are equipped with both “Rolling Compensation” method and optional
“Jacking Compensation” method to “compensate” the alignment targets or head units. “Rolling Compensa-
tion” is the preferred method.
- If using the “Rolling Compensation” method, after installing the alignment targets or head units, push or pull
on the rear wheel to move the vehicle. Do not push or pull on the vehicle body.
- If using the “Jacking Compensation” method, after installing the alignment targets or head units, raise the
vehicle and rotate the wheels 1/2 turn both ways.
NOTE:
Do not use the “Rolling Compensation” method if you are using sensor-type alignment equipment.
- Follow all instructions for the alignment machine you're using for more information.

• If camber is exceeds the standard value, adjust with adjusting bolt
(1) in front lower link (2).
CAUTION:
After adjusting camber, be sure to check toe-in.
- If camber is not still within the specification, inspect and replace
any damaged or worn suspension parts.
TOE-IN
• If toe-in is exceeds the standard value, adjust with adjusting bolt
(1) in rear lower link (2).
CAUTION:
• Be sure to adjust equally on right and left side with adjust-
ing bolt.
• When tightening the nut firmly and checking the torque, use
a wrench to prevent the turning of the bolt.
- If toe-in is not still within the specification, inspect and replace any
damaged or worn suspension parts.
