[ "Wheel Alignment ProcedureHave you ever come across a situation where your vehicle is either pulling towards the left side or towards the right side rather than moving towards a straight trajectory? If yes then it is an indication that the wheels of the vehicle are not properly aligned. The wheel's planes of the vehicle are arranged in an angle to facilitate your drive safely. But due to reasons like hitting on potholes or due to wear and tear of tyres, improper balances of the tyre the wheel angle can get misaligned and require a procedure known as wheel alignment.ProcedureThe wheels of the vehicle are to be aligned in a manner that the angles of the planes of the wheel are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the road surface. If you witness vibrations on the steering wheel, if there are irregular wear of tyres and the vehicle is not moving straight then it requires wheel alignment procedure. While aligning the wheel the mechanic works on three main things. These are camber, caster, and toe. Before starting the procedure of the wheel alignment Birmingham the technician should measure both the front and the back axel (angles) of the car. The procedure for the alignment of the wheel is as followsThe technician would adjust the camber and toe at the rear followed by adjusting the camber, caster, and toe at the front.In the next step, the steering head is locked in the straight-ahead position and the brake pedal depressor is applied if caster and camber are being measured.The measuring heads are fitted to the rear wheels along with the central line scaling the front wheels. Then the laser is switched on.The laser line will hit a number on the scale. This number should be the same on both scales. If there are different then toe needs adjusting.The toe scales reading should be used for calculating the rear toe. It is important to note that heads are reversed and the reading would be the opposite. The rear axle is adjusted to the perfect setting. If the centre-line scales are reading the same then the rear adjustment is finished.The measuring heads are now fitted to the front wheel. Now the same procedure is appliedAll the toe and thrust angle readings must be observed while standing under the vehicle.Once the angles are properly aligned the mechanic shall make a test drive of the vehicle to ensure that the vehicle is safe to drive on the roads. According to the UK, an MOT test certificate is necessary to drive the vehicle on the road. One of the important aspects of MOT test verification is wheel alignment.
