DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
• The adjustment mechanisms of camber and toe-in are not included.
• If camber and toe-in is outside the standard, check front suspension parts for wear and damage.
Replace suspect parts if a malfunction is detected.
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
.
• Shock absorber operation.
• Each mounting point of axle and suspension for looseness and deformation.
• Each of rear suspension beam and shock absorber for cracks, deformation, and other damage.
• Vehicle height (posture).
GENERAL INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. A Four-Wheel Thrust Alignment should be performed.
• This type of alignment is recommended for any NISSAN vehicle.
• The four-wheel “thrust” process helps ensure that the vehicle is properly aligned and the steering wheel
is centered.
• The alignment machine itself should be capable of accepting any NISSAN vehicle.
• The alignment machine should be checked to ensure that it is level.
2. Make sure the alignment machine is properly calibrated.
• Your alignment machine should be regularly calibrated in order to give correct information.
• Check with the manufacturer of your specific alignment machine for their recommended Service/Cali-
bration Schedule.
THE ALIGNMENT PROCESS
IMPORTANT:
Use only the alignment specifications listed in this Service Manual.
• When displaying the alignment settings, many alignment machines use "indicators" Do not use these indi-
cators.: (Green/red, plus or minus, Go/No Go).
- 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 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.
CAMBER
• Measure camber of both right and left wheels with a suitable alignment gauge.
• If camber is outside specified range, replace rear suspension beam. Refer to

TOE-IN
Measure toe-in by the following procedure.
WARNING:
• Always perform the following procedure on a flat surface.
• Check that no person is in front of vehicle before pushing it.
1. Bounce the front of vehicle up and down to stabilize the vehicle height (posture).
2. Push vehicle straight ahead about 5 m (16 ft).
3. Put matching mark (A) on base line of the tread (rear side) of
both tires at the same height of hub center. These are measur-
ing points.
4. Measure distance (A) (rear side).
5. Push vehicle slowly ahead to rotate wheels 180 degrees (1/2
turn).
NOTE:
If the wheels rotates more than 180 degrees (1/2 turn), start this
procedure again from the beginning. Do not push the vehicle
backward.
6. Measure distance (B) (front side).
• If toe-in is outside specified range, replace rear suspension beam. Refer to

.
Disposal
INFOID:0000000009267421
1. Set shock absorber horizontally to the ground with the piston rod fully extracted.
2. Drill 2 – 3 mm (0.08 – 0.12 in) hole at the position ( ) from top
as shown to release gas gradually.
CAUTION:
• Wear eye protection (safety glass).
• Wear gloves.
• Be careful with metal chips or oil blown out by the com-
pressed gas.
NOTE:
• Drill vertically in this direction.
• Directly to the outer tube avoiding brackets.
• The gas is clear, colorless, odorless, and harmless.
3. Position the drilled hole downward and drain oil by moving the piston rod several times.
