Loosely install the castle nut on the tie rod
end. Make sure the spindle moves smoothly
from full shock extension to full
compression, as indicated by the holes in
the shock simulator.
Now, set the shock simulator in the ride
height position before you start to check the
suspension settings. Do this on the driver
and passenger sides.
Before checking the front-end alignment,
check to be sure the frame is still level. Put
a level on the frame as shown, and adjust
the jack stands until the car is level front to
rear.
Readout from a digital level is preferred for
accuracy when setting the front-end
alignment. Level the crossmember and if
needed, adjust the height by placing shims
under one of the jack stands.
