IMPORTANT These measurements determine if the chassis parts have to be replaced or if the body must be maintained on the straightening bench. Either the difference between the left and right or the distance measurement can be used for this evaluation.
IMPORTANT If the distance and comparison measurements do not permit any clear diagnosis of the axle parts, measure the individual parts.
IMPORTANT Models 215, 220: In the event of visible damage, e.g. cracking, deformation at front axle carrier or rear axle carrier, these parts should be replaced.
