Wheel Alignment
Note
All specifications given in degrees. To convert from degrees to minutes and seconds, multiply the decimal after the whole number by 60. The whole number becomes the minute. Take the remaining decimal and multiply it by 60 to get the second. For example, 1.75° would be 1° and 45 min (.75*60). 0.17° would be 10 min and 12 seconds. (0.17*60=10.2; .2*60=12).
Note
The Model 3 and Model Y
vehicles do not have dedicated adjustment points for camber and caster. Instead,
camber and caster are adjusted by manipulating the suspension lash and slop. The
real-world accuracy of these adjustments is achieved by installing 68 kg (150
lbs) ballast bags to simulate the presence of a driver and front passenger.
Performing this service procedure without ballast bags compromises the
real-world accuracy of the adjustments.
