Positioning The Target

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Infiniti QX56. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Suspend a string with weights on each end over the centerline of the vehicle. The string should lay over the center of the front and back bumpers. Mark these centerpoints on the ground at each weight.
Connect the two center points using a string. Extend the string an additional 5 m (16 ft) beyond the front centerpoint and mark the floor. Position the target board weight on this mark.

Relocate the suspended string from the left side of the target board to the center of the target board. Mark this point on the ground.
Pivot the target board on its center mark 20° to either side.
NOTE: Approx. 50 mm (1.97 in) shift will produce a 20° movement.
