ON-VEHICLE MAINTENANCE

FRONT SUSPENSION ASSEMBLY

On-Vehicle Inspection and Service

INFOID:0000000001716890

Make sure the mounting conditions (looseness, back lash) of each component and component conditions
(wear, damage) are normal.

INSPECTION OF LOWER BALL JOINT END PLAY

1.

Set front wheels in a straight-ahead position. Do not depress brake pedal.

2.

Place an iron bar or similar tool between transverse link and steering knuckle.

3.

Measure axial end play by prying it up and down.

CAUTION:

Be careful not to damage ball joint boot. Do not damage the installation position by applying
excessive force.

STRUT INSPECTION

Check for oil leakage, damage and replace as necessary.

Wheel Alignment Inspection

INFOID:0000000001716891

PRELIMINARY INSPECTION

WARNING:

Always adjust the alignment with the vehicle on a flat surface.
NOTE:
If alignment is out of specification, inspect and replace any damaged or worn rear suspension parts before
making any adjustments.

1.

Check and adjust the wheel alignment with the vehicle under unladen conditions. “Unladen conditions”
means that the fuel, coolant, and lubricant are full; and that the spare tire, jack, hand tools and mats are in
their designated positions.

2.

Check the tires for incorrect air pressure and excessive wear.

3.

Check the wheels for run out and damage. Refer to 

WT-5, "Inspection"

 .

4.

Check the wheel bearing axial end play. Refer to 

FAX-5, "On-Vehicle Inspection and Service"

 .

5.

Check the shock absorbers for leaks or damage.

6.

Check each mounting point of the suspension components for any excessive looseness or damage.

7.

Check each link, arm, and the suspension member for any damage.

8.

Check the vehicle height. Refer to 

FSU-18, "Wheelarch Height (Unladen*)"

 .

GENERAL INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

1.

A Four-Wheel Thrust Alignment should be performed.
• This type of alignment is recommended for any NISSAN vehicle.
• The four-wheel “thrust” process helps ensure that the vehicle is properly aligned and the steering wheel

is centered.

• The alignment machine itself should be capable of accepting any NISSAN vehicle.
• The alignment machine should be checked to ensure that it is level.

2.

Make sure the alignment machine is properly calibrated.
• Your alignment machine should be regularly calibrated in order to give correct information.
• Check with the manufacturer of your specific alignment machine for their recommended Service/Cali-

bration Schedule.

THE ALIGNMENT PROCESS

IMPORTANT: Use only the alignment specifications listed in this Service Manual. Refer to 

FSU-17, "Wheel

Alignment (Unladen*)"

 .

1.

When displaying the alignment settings, many alignment machines use “indicators”: (Green/red, plus or
minus, Go/No Go). Do NOT use these indicators.
