PROCEDURE < Balancing Tips >: Notes
- Confirm that the balancer's cone and the wheel mounting cone are undamaged and free of dirt and rust.
- On this vehicle, the wheel's center hole on the hub side has a chamfered edge. Use a back-mounting cone on your wheel balancer to center the wheel on the balancer shaft.
- Install a wheel mounting cone. The appropriate size cone for this vehicle is 67.0 mm (2.64 inches).
- Before balancing the wheel, remove any wheel weights from both sides. Also check both sides for any damage.
- When installing wheel weights, hammer them at a straight (not diagonal) angle.
