wise direction, the right side blocks in a
counter-clockwise direction. Left and

Track Tension and Alignment
Tension:
Lift the rear of vehicle and support with
a mechanical stand. Allow the slide to
extend normally. Check the gap 13 mm
(112/1)
between the slider shoe and the
bottom inside of the track. If the track
tension is too loose, the track will have
a tendency to thump.
