==''Honda Civic Pre-Alignment Inspection Procedures''==
==''RIDE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT''==
Before adjusting alignment, check riding height. Riding height must be checked with vehicle on level floor and tires properly inflated. Passenger and luggage compartments must be unloaded. Bounce vehicle several times, and allow suspension to settle. Visually inspect vehicle from front to rear and from side to side for signs of abnormal height.
Measure riding height. [[http://www.garage411.com/images/Honda/EGcivic/Suspension/alignment1.gif See figure]]. Riding height between left and right sides of vehicle should vary less than 1" (25.4 mm). If riding height is not within specification, check suspension components and repair or replace them as necessary.
==''JACKING AND HOISTING''==
See [[JackingVehicleHonda jacking procedures]] for more info.
====''WHEEL ALIGNMENT PROCEDURES''====
**Honda recommends using commercially available computerized 4-wheel alignment equipment. Follow equipment manufacturer instructions to obtain vehicle alignment settings. Use following procedures for necessary adjustments.**
==''CAMBER ADJUSTMENT''==
Compare camber settings with vehicle manufacturer recommendations. If camber is incorrect, check for bent or damaged front suspension components. Replace faulty components. Recheck camber.
==''CASTER ADJUSTMENT''==
DO NOT use more than 2 shims. If more than 2 shims are required to adjust caster angle, check for bent or damaged suspension components.
Compare caster settings with vehicle manufacturer recommendations. If caster is incorrect, check for bent or damaged front suspension components. Replace faulty components. Recheck caster.
==''TOE-IN ADJUSTMENT''==
1. Secure steering wheel in straight-ahead position. Measure front wheel toe-in. If adjustment is needed, loosen tie rod lock nuts. Turn both tie rods equally in the same direction until front wheels are in straight-ahead position and toe-in reading is correct. Tighten tie rod lock nuts. Reposition tie rod boots if twisted.
2. Ensure parking brake is released. Check rear wheel toe-in. If adjustment is needed, hold adjusting bolt on rear compensator arm and loosen lock nut. [[http://www.garage411.com/images/Honda/EGcivic/Suspension/alignment2.gif See figure]]. Adjust rear toe-in by sliding rear control arm until rear toe-in is correct. Install NEW lock nut, and tighten it while holding adjusting bolt.
