21 FRONT WHEEL SUSPENSION SYSTEM check toe-in, the front wheels should be in the straight ahead position and when the measurements are taken from the side of the tire the wheels should be turned on their bearings to bring the high spot on the side of the tires in a vertical plane at the top or bottom, as shown in Fig. 20. The toe-in dimensions should come within the limits just given. Toe-in of the front wheels is adjusted by means of the tie rods and must be set to make the front tires run with a true rolling contact. Turning the tie rods in the same direction as the wheels revolve, when the car moves forward, decreases the toe-in and turning it in the opposite direction increases the toe-in. Large errors in toe-in indicate bent steering knuckle arms. Toe-in must be corrected before checking toe-out on turns. When making the toe-in adjustment, the rear end of the intermediate steering arm must be exactly at the center of the car. Both tie rods are then turned an equal amount to retain the same distance between the rear end of the intermediate steering arm and the front wheels. One tie rod must not be adjusted alone. TOE-OUT ON TURNS In addition to the front wheel settings previously described, there is another very important action of the front wheels, which has a great effect on tire wear. This action is toe-out on turns. See Fig. 16, Plate 2. In other words, when the front wheels are turned to the right or left they separate slightly at the front, depending on the amount of deflection from the straight ahead course, instead of retaining their toe-in relation. The wheel making the inside or smaller circle turns a greater angle than the outside wheel, thus making toe-out necessary on curves. The amount of toe-out increases as the turn increases due to the increasing angle between the wheels. Toe-out of the front wheels is a result of steering knuckle arm design and is dependent on the alignment of these arms. The setting of the arms is at an angle with one another and with the center line of the car instead of straight back in order to maintain the proper relation of the front wheels on turns. In other words, if these arms were extended back far enough toward the rear of the car they would intersect or cross at a point in front of the rear axle, varying with the wheelbase of the car. The angle of these arms depends upon their length, the wheel base of the car and the distance between the steering knuckle bolts. Adjustment Toe-out of the front wheels should be 2 to 3 on the Cadillac cars and 1¾ to 3¾ 0 on the LaSalle. The toe-out is checked by turning the wheels to the right or left, locating the outside wheel in a definite position. With the outside wheel set to 20°, the setting of the inside wheel should come to 22-23½° on the Cadillac and 21^-23¾° on the LaSalle. Errors in the setting of the inside wheel are due to bent steering knuckle arms. When these arms are bent, the wheels will not turn in the proper relation on curves, which condition will affect the toe-out and result in excessive tire wear. Bent arms, however, will not necessarily affect the straight ahead driving. When the steering knuckle arms are found bent or sprung out of line they should be replaced with new ones. Before discarding them, however, a careful check should be made to make sure that the steering knuckle support or suspension arms are not bent, the camber and caster are correct, and the same on both sides, the toe-in is correct and the front and rear wheels are parallel. Front Wheel Alignment Diagnosis Chart Effect Cause Remedy. Hard Steering (Indicated by tightness in steering system) Low or uneven tire pressure. Steering gear or connections adjusted too tight. Steering tie rod ends adjusted too tight. (Cadillac only). Insufficient or incorrect lubricant used. Inflate tires to proper pressure Test steering system for binding with front wheels off floor. Adjust as necessary and lubricate. Check for binding with front wheels oft floor. Adjust as required and lubricate. Check lubricant in steering gear and lubricate steering system as required.
22 FRONT WHEEL SUSPENSION SYSTEM Diagnosis Chart Effect Hard Steering (Continued) Cause Excessive caster. Suspension arms bent or twisted. Front springs sagged. Remedy Check caster and adjust as necessary. Check wheel alignment by testing the camber, knuckle bolt inclination and caster. If arms are out of car, check against specifications given in Plate 2. Replace arms with new ones. Check overall length of springs. Sagged springs should be replaced with new ones. Frame bent or broken. Steering knuckle bent. Check frame for proper alignment and breakage. or replace frame as necessary. Replace with new knuckle. Repair Excessive Play or Looseness in Steering System Steering gear or connections adjusted too loose or worn. Steering knuckle bearings worn. Front wheel bearings incorrectly adjusted or worn. Adjust or install new parts as necessary. Install new bearings. Adjust bearings or replace with new parts as necessary Erratic Steering on Application of Brakes Car Pulls to one Side Low or uneven tire pressure. Brakes incorrectly or unevenly adjusted Front springs weak. Insufficient or uneven caster. Steering knuckle bent. Low or uneven tire pressure. Rear wheels not tracking with front wheels. Brakes incorrectly or unevenly adjusted. Shock absorbers incorrectly or unevenly adjusted, improperly lubricated or inoperative. Inflate tires to proper pressure. Adjust brakes. Replace with new springs of correct type Check caster and adjust as necessary. Replace with new knuckle. Inflate tires to proper pressure. Check alignment of rear wheels with front wheels and correct as necessary. Adjust brakes. Check adjustment and correct as necessary. Also make sure they are properly lubricated. Wheel bearings adjusted too tight. Toe-in incorrect. Check for binding with front wheels off floor. Adjust bearings and lubricate. Adjust tie rods to make front wheels toe-in proper amount. Incorrect or uneven caster. Incorrect or uneven camber. Front springs sagged. Rear spring eye straightened out. Rear axle shifted. (Spring clip bolts loose or center bolt sheared.) Check caster and adjust as necessary. Check camber and correct by replacing parts or using shims as necessary. Check overall length of springs. Sagged springs should be replaced with new ones. Replace main or eye leaf or spring assembly. Check spring clips for looseness. Also measure from rear spring bolt to axle housing. This distance should be uniform on both sides of car.
