Typical steps to check the wheel lateral alignment are as follows:

00:00:04,542 --> 00:00:09,958
1. Align the end axle wheels with the truck frame as follows:

3
00:00:09,958 --> 00:00:22,125
a. Install 5.125 inch (13.018 cm) blocks to the journal box tees on the non-gearcase side of both end axles.

4
00:00:22,125 --> 00:00:31,958
<b>Note: </b>This provides the distance between the outside face of the journal box tee and the machined face of the truck frame between both retainer pins.

5
00:00:31,958 --> 00:00:45,583
b. Install airbags between the truck frame and the wheel on the non-gearcase side of the end wheel sets, then apply air to the airbags and move each wheel set until there is contact between the blocks and the truck frame.

6
00:00:45,583 --> 00:00:53,417
2. Use wedges to block the end axles in respect to the frame and remove the airbags from the end axles.
