Can the Rearward Shift of the Right Front Wheel Be Adjusted Back?
2 Answers
Right front wheel rearward shift can be adjusted back. Here is the relevant introduction about wheel alignment: 1. Concept: Wheel alignment is based on the four-wheel parameters of the vehicle, and adjustments are made to ensure good driving performance and certain reliability of the vehicle. 2. Front wheel alignment: Front wheel alignment includes four aspects: caster angle, kingpin inclination angle, camber angle, and toe-in. This applies to the two steering front wheels. For the two rear wheels, there is also a relative installation position with the rear axle, which is called rear wheel alignment. Rear wheel alignment includes camber angle and individual rear wheel toe-in.
I've encountered a similar issue before. Last time I accidentally scraped the curb and noticed the right front wheel seemed to have shifted backward slightly. The car felt unstable when driving, constantly pulling to the right, which made me quite nervous. I immediately drove to a repair shop for inspection. The mechanic said suspension components might have loosened or deformed, such as the lower control arm needing bolt position adjustment to realign the wheel. However, a four-wheel alignment test should be done first to ensure other parts are fine. If left unrepaired, not only will tire wear accelerate, but there's also a high risk of losing control at high speeds, posing significant safety hazards. Normally, try to avoid potholes when driving and don't overload the vehicle. If something does happen, it won't cost much to fix, so don't worry excessively, but it's better to address it early.
