1	Measure distance between center of front screw (6) fastening trailing arm to rear axle (4) and lower edge of tubular crossmember (5)	This distance is the rear axle supplementary dimension which is required to determine the caster specified value in operation step 3. It now has the designation "a".
2	Measure distance between center of rear screw (3) for fastening trailing arm to front axle (1) and frame lower edge (2)	This distance is the front axle supplementary dimension which is required to determine the caster specified value in operation step 3. It now has the designation "b".
3.1	Enter supplementary dimensions determined in operation steps 1 and 2 into computer of electronic measuring system	Model 460, 461 (except 461.339) Model 463 up to model year 2019 The supplementary dimensions correspond to the level of the front and rear axle; the computer calculates the caster specified value from these values.
3.2	Determine specified caster value in nomogram	Model 460, 461 (except 461.339) Model 463 up to model year 2019 Model 460, 461 (except 461.339) Wheelbase 2400 mm Model 463 up to model year 2019 Wheelbase 2400 mm	AR40.20-P-0200-01AC
