1.0 Vehicle Preparation
Troubleshooting cab lean should only begin after completing a vehicle
preparation procedure to ensure all components are in place and settled.
• The complete truck must be run for 16 kilometers (10 miles) minimum.
• Ensure that all tires are inflated to the correct pressure.
• If the vehicle is equipped with rear air suspension, you must cycle the
suspension before taking measurements. This will reset the rear suspension to
the correct ride height and ensure the vehicle rake (i.e. inclination) is correct.
To do so:
» Ensure that the parking brake is released and no service brake is
being applied
» Release the air from the air springs to lower the suspension
» Raise the suspension back up to the nominal drive level height

2.0 Taking Measurements
2.1 Where to Measure
With the truck on a flat and level surface, the frame height from ground will be
measured on both the left and right hand side separately using a vertically
oriented measuring tool.
This shall be done from the bottom side of the frame near the frame side web, as
near as possible to the front axle location.

Obtaining this measurement can be complex - the front springs are directly below the
frame rail lower flange, making it difficult to drop a tape measure straight down to the
floor.
The process may be made easier by placing a straight edge against the lower flange
of the frame (pictured right), then measuring outboard of the frame. Additionally, you
may need to crawl beneath the truck to take this measurement.

2.2 Measurement Standards
A difference in height (measuring as instructed above) between both sides must be ≤
11mm (an incline of 0.6° maximum). If the measurement is found to be greater than

instances by following the instructions which follow.

3.0 Front Correction Process
3.1 Process to Correct Front Cab Lean
3.1.1 Determine if the vehicle has a Standard or High front ride height
Determine the front ride height by measuring the rear height (A) of the
wedge located on the left hand side of the truck (pictured below).
a

a
Utilize the following table along with the measured rear height of the wedge to
determine the front ride height designation:

a
3.1.2 Measure the difference in chassis height (right-hand vs. left-hand)
a
In accordance with the measurement location requirements outlined in section
2.0, measure the distance from the floor to the bottom of the frame on the lefthand and right-hand sides individually.
Calculate the frame height difference (B) with the following formula:
B = right hand frame height - left hand frame height
a
3.1.3 Find the parts required to correct the lean
Consult the tables provided in Section 4.0 to determine the wedges, U-bolts,
and nuts required to level up the chassis. If the calculated height difference (B)
does not match the number in the table exactly, choose the closest one - there
is no preference for measurements slightly over or under the calculated (B).

NOTE: When replacing the wedge on the left-hand side, the U-bolt
hardware MUST also be replaced.
a
NOTE: Performing suspension work may result in load redistribution.
Before remeasuring the cab lean, follow the guidelines in the Vehicle
Preparation Section.
a
Once the vehicle has been remeasured and it has been determined that the
lean has been corrected and no further suspension adjustments are needed,
the final step is to
perform a vehicle alignment.
