(1) MEASUREMENT WITH TRACKING GAUGES
Three types of deformations, side-sway, diamond and buckling, can be measured.


(a) Side-sway
This is checked by measuring the dimensions of the respective crossmember diagonal lines and comparing them to see if any differences are present.

(b) Diamond
Measure the dimensions of the respective crossmember diagonal lines. If any gap is present in the length, a diamond deformation is present.

(c) Buckling
This is checked by measuring the height dimensions and length dimensions according to the vehicle body alignment section in the Service Manual or the Body Repair Manual.

(2) MEASUREMENT WITH CENTERING GAUGES
Four types of deformations, sagging, side-sway, twisting, and diamond, can be measured.


(a) Sagging
This is checked by looking through the horizontal bars of centering gauges.

(b) Side-sway
This is checked by looking through the center pins of centering gauges attached on the frame.

(c) Twisting
Twisting can be checked by judging whether the horizontal bar of a centering gauge attached on the frame is inclined.
(d) Diamond
Diamond deformation can be checked by identifying any displacement of the side pin of a diamond attachment attached to the center of a centering gauge on the frame or to the horizontal bar located nearby.
