PCT No. PCT/SE95/01009 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 9, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 9, 1996 PCT Filed Sep. 8, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/07884 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 14, 1996A device for inspecting any looseness and wear in the steering joints and suspension parts of vehicles has a low profile for installation onto a workshop floor, so that a vehicle can be driven onto the unit. The device comprises two generally planar plates bearing against one another. The lower plate is attached to the workshop floor, while the upper plate is rotatable mounted at one end thereof by a bearing pin fitted in the lower plate. The plates are, at their respective free ends, attached to one another by at least one hydraulic cylinder. In use, a vehicle is driven onto the device so as to locate a wheel on the top plate of the device, between the bearing pin and the longitudinal axis of the hydraulic cylinder. Rotation of the upper plate by application of force by the hydraulic cylinder imparts simultaneous displacement of the wheel on the upper plate in both the longitudinal and lateral directions relative to the vehicle.
