Front end alignment tool

摘要

A front end alignment tool (10) for a front suspension system (12) of a motor vehicle (14) comprising an elongate bolt (16). A foot (20) is also provided. A structure (22) is for attaching the foot (20) to a first end (24) of the elongate bolt (16). An assembly (26) is for mounting transversely and in an operable manner the elongate bolt (16) onto either end shaft (28) and (29) of a pivot bar (30), for an upper suspension arm (32) of the front suspension system (12). A component (38) on a second end (40) of the elongate bolt (16), is for rotating the elongate bolt (16), so that the foot (20) will bear against a frame (42) of the motor vehicle (14). This allows adjustment and tightening of a bolt (44) and nut (46) through each of two apertures (48) in the pivot bar (30) and each of two adjustment slots (50) in a suspension arm frame mount (52) of the front suspension system (12) attached to the frame (42) of the motor vehicle (14).
