View Full Version : xb rear wheel alignment.. squarepants 02-14-2005, 05:40 AM did anyone need there rear wheels alignment after lowering,took my box in for alignment and they told me that the rear needs alignment too,i'll sure will like to know if this dude is trying to hustle me... jct 02-14-2005, 06:26 AM i think that four wheel alignment is the norm now-a-days squarepants 02-14-2005, 06:29 AM thanks for the info...

Only thing that needs to be adjusted is the toe of the front two wheels. When I had my alignment done, the left wheel was off by .30 Eski628 02-15-2005, 03:17 AM when i got my xA re-aligned they only adjusted the toe. the camber isn't adjustable with the stock struts and springs. CBSIMONSEZ 02-15-2005, 04:15 AM The rear is a solid axel, to the best of my knowledge, there isnt anything to adjust. BTW .... one side of the rear is off, more then the other. If you look at the rear, the drivers side sits in more then on the passengers side. By about 5MM. All the boxes have this problem, its normal for some reason. They came this way from the factory. squarepants 02-15-2005, 04:27 AM it's true there is nothing to adjust on the rear but the guy at the shop told me that you can install shims on the hub so the wheels will sit level on the ground,think i'll do the alignment to the front for now as for the rear i'll wait and see what kinda tire wear i'm getting..

With both spindles attached to the same swingarm the axles have to be parallel (actaully, coaxial) to each other throughout their travel.
