Body geometry
Use rolling sensors to achieve correct wheel alignment (the rear wheels must be exactly in the track of the front), - check the correct installation of the sensors and the equality of the lengths of the pointers.
When using a tape measure (preferably metal) make sure that its measuring tape is not twisted or bent.
Star image (*) after the value at the measurement point indicates that the second measurement point is symmetrical with respect to the specified one.
The coordinates of the measurement points are the distances measured in three main directions ("X", "Y", "Z").
The location of the coordinate axes when measuring the geometric parameters of the car body
FR - Forward
LH - Port side
RH - Starboard
"X-X" - Car diametral plane
"Y-Y" - The vertical plane passing through the axis of the front wheels of the car
"Z-Z" - Main plane
