Checking rear axle camber - AR40.20-P-0331R

MODEL 230.467 /474 /475 /476 /479 

INSPECT Checking    
1 Checking rear axle camber IMPORTANT The camber on the rear axle is not adjustable.
If substantial deviations in the rear axle camber are found, the cause may be one of the following:
  • Excessive difference in the vehicle level between the left and right sides of the vehicle.
  • Accident damage to the frame floor.
  • Discrepancies in the levels of the mounting points for the rear axle carrier between right and left body side.

IMPORTANT Experience shows that bending caused by an accident also has an effect on the toe.
