How to Adjust the Car Body in a Straight Line?
2 Answers
Slowly turn the steering wheel in the opposite direction of the car's tilt to correct the body position. Once the car body is nearly parallel to the straight line, straighten the steering wheel. Some cars may have a reverse assist system. Below are specific introductions to car driving assistance systems: 1. Lane Keeping Assist System: Provides support for maintaining the lane while driving, using a camera to identify the lane markings. 2. Brake Assist System: Sensors determine whether to initiate an emergency braking procedure by analyzing the driver's pedal operation. 3. Reverse Assist System: This system alleviates the trouble caused by blind spots in the rearview mirror through visual forms of images and sounds, notifying the driver of the relative position between the car and obstacles, thereby facilitating reverse driving and eliminating safety hazards.
Straightening the car body is a skill I learned in my hometown repair shop when I was young, and the process is quite meticulous: First, identify where the misalignment is, usually using a laser measuring device or a simple ruler to clearly mark the deformation points. Then, secure the base with a pulling tower tool, select the hook points, and gradually apply pulling force—the force should be even, not too heavy at once. Continuously measure symmetry while pulling to ensure both sides are aligned. After straightening, promptly weld to reinforce and prevent rebound, then test drive to ensure smooth straight-line driving. Throughout the process, safety comes first—wear gloves and goggles, and have a helper keep an eye out to avoid accidents or damage to other parts. I believe the key is patience; rushing won’t help. From my experience, beginners should start with minor deformations to save on repair costs. Remember to inspect the car for a few days after straightening and avoid long-distance trips right away.
