Camber-convergence of wheels GEELY MK in Moscow
It is no secret that any responsible car enthusiast should monitor the specifics of wheel installation. In Europe, this has long become a legal requirement, violation of which entails a fine. In our country, there is no fine, thank God, but similarity disorder GEELY MK is still a badly needed task.
What is GEELY MK wheel alignment? The wheels of the car are not installed directly, although it looks like this from the side. The wheels are installed at an angle to each other, to the direction of travel, to the plane of rotation, from each other. There is a list of angles that are taken into account when checking the position of the wheels. These angles have just got hold of a generalizing definition - wheel alignment. Camber GEELY MK is the tilt of the wheels inward or outward. Toe GEELY MK - their deviation from the direction of movement (towards each other or apart)
Some wheel alignment angles can be calibrated, others tracked. Our auto craftsmen know how to understand all the features.
Conversion - Camber is adjusted in order to improve overall vehicle handling. Without mistakes, the work on adjusting the angles at which the wheels are installed makes the car more stable when entering a turn and on slippery road surfaces, helping to save fuel and save rubber.
Diagnosis of deviations from camber GEELY MK
Diagnostics of similar camber GEELY MK on the basis of our auto technical centers is a complex process in which innovative equipment is used. It is not possible to solve these problems without computer technology.
It must be remembered that there is a frequency with which you need to drive the car to the vanishing stand. Even if there are no visible external deviations, diagnosis of camber GEELY MK necessary when running more than twelve thousand km.
The GEELY MK suspension requires urgent diagnostics if
- You keep the steering wheel straight, and the car seems to\u003e to the side
- New tires wear out quickly or wear unevenly
- GEELY MK steering wheel does not return to straight position automatically
Rear axle GEELY MK
The peculiarity of the rear wheel adjustment is that rear toe GEELY MK cannot be performed by excluding the front axle adjustment procedure. In addition, the most important difference between the rear axle is that the wheels at the rear are not designed for camber calibration. That is, the change in the camber angles is not foreseen in principle, they can only be tracked. The rear and front axles also differ in other parameters and, accordingly, are calibrated in different ways. So that rear toe GEELY MK is carried out regarding debugging of the front wheels, after doubts about the correctness of their position are excluded.
Front axle GEELY MK
At our car service centers, you can pre-register for tuning the front wheels. It is preferable to do this, because front camber GEELY MK extremely popular service among our clients. This is primarily due to the condition of the road surface, and not to the poor-quality work of auto concerns. In order not to waste time in vain, call the phone number listed on the website. Our managers will advise a suitable service station, advise on the cost of services, and answer technical questions.
Measurement and calibration of wheel alignment angles GEELY MK
Previously, our compatriots had to calibrate the descent - the collapse with their own hands. For these purposes, look for a flat surface, equip a viewing hole, and take a long and tedious time to measure angles with the help of improvised means. Nowadays, when machines have become much more complex in terms of design, camber adjustment GEELY MK without computers is absolutely impossible.
In any case, before starting debugging, you must check alignment GEELY MK... Without this, no professional auto mechanic will take the job.
Adjustment must be done sequentially
- GEELY MK preparation, undercarriage components check
- Elimination of suspension deficiencies when they are detected
- Depending on the capabilities of the stand - rim runout compensation
- Geometry diagnostics
- Angle Calibration
As we said, make similar camber GEELY MK only with the necessary tools and equipment. Our innovative stands are competently maintained and calibrated in a timely manner, which eliminates the possibility of errors.
94 95 ..Geely MK / Cross. Checking and adjusting wheel alignment
Checking and adjusting the wheel alignment is necessary to ensure good stability and controllability of the vehicle, as well as uniform tire wear during operation. Checking and adjusting the wheel alignment angles is performed on special stands according to the instructions for their operation.
The discrepancy between the actual values \u200b\u200bmeasured on the vehicle and the reference values \u200b\u200bspecified in the specifications is due to wear and deformation of suspension parts, deformation of the body.
Warning
Replacing or repairing suspension parts may lead to a change in the wheel alignment angles, so checking the wheel alignment angles after carrying out this work is mandatory.
Front wheel alignment angles:
caster angle
angle of lateral inclination of the axis of rotation of the wheel: see vehicle specifications
camber angle : see vehicle specifications
convergence : see vehicle specifications
Rear wheel alignment angles:
camber angle : see vehicle specifications
convergence : see vehicle specifications
Check the wheel alignment on a car with a ballast weight of 70 kg in each front seat, with a half-filled fuel tank, normal air pressure in the tires, in the absence of excessive play in the suspension units.
After placing the car on the stand, just before checking the corners, "squeeze" the car's suspension, applying two or three times a force directed from top to bottom, first to the rear bumper and then to the front one. The wheels of the vehicle must be parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle.
Checking the angles of the front wheels, first determine the angles of the longitudinal and lateral inclination of the axis of rotation of the wheels, then the camber angle and, last of all, the toe-in of the wheels.
Front wheel caster angleit is formed by a vertical in a side view and a line passing through the middle of the upper support of the telescopic strut and the center of the sphere of the ball joint fixed to the lower arm.
Angle of lateral inclination of the axis of rotation of the front wheelit is formed by a vertical line in front view and a line passing through the middle of the upper support of the telescopic rack and the center of the sphere of the ball joint fixed to the lower arm.
Camber front wheelscharacterized by the deviation of the middle plane of rotation of the front wheel from the vertical
Note
Adjustment of the angles of the longitudinal and lateral tilt of the steering axis, as well as the camber angle of the front wheels is not provided for by the design of the car. If these angles deviate from the nominal values, replace the damaged and deformed parts.
Toe-in is the angle between the plane of rotation of the front wheel and the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. Toe-in of the front wheels is adjusted by changing the length of the steering rods.
Rear wheel alignment can be adjusted during operation.
The camber angle of the rear wheels is characterized by the deviation of the middle plane of rotation of the rear wheel from the vertical. The camber angle of the rear wheel is adjusted by rotating the adjusting bolts securing the upper wishbone to the body bracket and to the rear cross member.
Toe-in is the angle between the plane of rotation of the rear wheel and the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. The toe-in of the rear wheels is adjusted by rotating the adjusting bolt located on the inside of the control lever.
Measurement point:
A. Height from ground to center of front wheel
B. Height from ground to center of lower arm bolt
C. Height from ground to center of rear beam bolt
D. Height from ground to center of rear wheel
Note: Adjust the vehicle height to standard values \u200b\u200bbefore checking the front wheel alignment.
If the vehicle height is not up to standard, adjust it.
3- Check toe-in Toe-in:
Convergence a + in o ° ± 12 "
If toe is not within specification, adjust the left and right steering levers.
4. Toe adjustment (fig. 208)
(a) Remove the boot retainer.
(b) Unscrew the nuts at the end of the control arm.
(c) Rotate the ends of the arms of the left and right strut evenly to adjust the toe (fig. 209)
Advice: adjust toe-in to average.
(d) Make sure the length of the left and right uprights is the same.
(e) Tighten the nuts at the end of the control arm.
Tightening torque: 74 ± 5 \u200b\u200bNm
(f) Install the boot retainer.
Advice: check the integrity of the boot.
5. Checking the angle of rotation
(a) Turn the steering wheel all the way down and measure the steering angle (fig. 210).
Angle of rotation:
(regular road)
(bad road)
If the left and right inner corner is out of specification, check the length of the left and right upright.
6. Checking the camber, longitudinal tilt and inclination of the steering shaft (fig. 211).
(a) Install the camber-tilt-king pin sensor or raise the wheel alignment tester.
(b) Check camber, pitch and tilt of the steering shaft.
Camber, longitudinal tilt and tilt of the steering shaft: (normal road)
(bad road)
If the pitch and pitch of the steering shaft is out of specification, adjust the pitch and then check for damage or wear on the lower arm parts.
7. Camber adjustment
Note: after camber adjustment, check toe-in (fig. 212,213)
(a) Remove the front wheels.
(b) Remove the 2 nuts under the shock absorber.
If nuts and bolts are reused, apply oil to the threads of the nuts.
(c) Clean the shock absorber nut and the steering knuckle contact surface.
(d) Temporarily install the 2 nuts Figure 112.
(e) Push or pull the lower end of the damper towards the desired camber adjustment (fig. 213).
(f) Tighten the nut.
Tightening torque: 153 ± 10 Nm (d) Install the front wheels.
Tightening torque: 103 ± 10 Nm (h) Check camber.
- After suspension repair:
replacement of the tips of the steering rods;
replacement of ball joints;
replacement of the pendulum arm;
replacement of the steering gear or steering rack;
replacement of suspension arms;
replacement of silent blocks;
replacement of springs (mandatory: re-adjustment after 3-5 t. km of run);
replacement of struts or shock absorbers from oil to gas-oil or gas and vice versa, a change in the vehicle's clearance occurs, which entails a change in the UUK (wheel alignment angles)
If the car drifts to the side - to the right or left, and the steering wheel changes its position when driving in a straight line.
After changing the vehicle's ground clearance (ground clearance):
installation of spacers ("houses") or thickened rubber bands for suspension springs;
installation of shorter or higher suspension springs (mandatory: re-adjustment after 3-5 t. km of run)
The car does not hold the road well ("floats") or throws to the side when it falls into holes and, especially, into a rut.
The car "dulls" in management. The reaction to steering movements is late. The steering wheel is tight.
When braking, the car pulls (pulls) to the side or tends to turn around on a slippery road (brake system diagnostics is necessary first)
If it enters a pit with a deformation of the disc, a hit of the suspension on the bumpers, the steering wheel leaves its original position (“the steering wheel is gone - the toe is gone”).
Increased rubber wear.
If the car has a different turning radius to the left and to the right and you want to align it (sometimes this is accompanied by the wheels touching the arches when the steering wheel is turned all the way)
Poor steering return when exiting a corner (castor is broken)
After running in a new car or if you recently bought a used car.
After replacing winter tires with summer ones (in winter you get into pits - the corners go away, the rubber does not "eat up" - it is slippery, spring comes and the rubber starts to "eat up").
After installing new tires, especially if the vehicle is drifting to the side. * Do not forget that new tires must be run in at least 300-500 km during running in. Do not make sudden accelerations, decelerations - do not strain the rubber so that it will last longer. This is especially true for studded rubber, since the spikes must fall into place in their nests, otherwise the "floating" spikes will become "flying away".
You can name some technical points that indicate that it is time to drive your car to the workshop. If you visually notice uneven tire tread wear. If you feel a force on the steering wheel when driving in a straight line, or the car moves to the side when you release the steering wheel. If the car loses directional stability when it hits bumps on the road. If you notice increased tire noise when the vehicle is moving. If you notice a sharp change in the position of the horizontal steering wheel spoke.
All these points indicate that it is necessary to adjust the wheel alignment. It cannot be adjusted independently in the garage. This requires special equipment.
What is camber?
A wheel with a negative camber angle. Camber is the angle between the vertical and the plane of rotation of the wheel. Camber is considered negative if the wheels are facing inward, and positive if the upper side is outward.
Camber changes with a change in the roll of the car, and in MacPherson suspensions - also with a change in load. In heavy trucks "Tatra" the camber of the rear wheels on an unloaded vehicle is so great that the vehicle rides only on the outer tires.
Zero camber ensures minimal tire wear. Negative camber improves cornering stability. Positive camber is used only in two places: 1) on cars with MacPherson strut suspension, and 2) on sports cars designed for oval driving on the inner wheels.
On double wishbones, camber can usually be changed. On vehicles with MacPherson strut, lowering ground clearance by simply shortening the springs will change all four wheel alignment angles. To change the clearance, you need to change the entire suspension mount.
It was originally measured using plumb lines and levels of various systems, now either optical sensors with computer processing of the results or gravitational tilt sensors are used.
