Runout Inspection

2. Using a dial indicator, check runout.

CAUTION: Make sure that wheel bearing axial end play is within the specifications before measuring runout. Refer to FAX-5, "FRONT WHEEL BEARING INSPECTION". Suspension

3. If runout is outside the limit, find the minimum runout point by shifting the mounting positions of disc rotor and wheel hub by one hole.

2. If runout is still out of the specification, grind rotor with on-car brake lathe ("MAD, DL-8700", "AMMCO 700 and 705" or equivalent) until runout becomes within the specified limit.
