Tracking adjustment (VB ECO Cargo)

Suspension axles can be quickly aligned through
VB ECO Cargo hanger brackets and equalizing beams
with integrated wheel alignment:
Production tolerances on the vehicle can be equalised or
wheelbases corrected (axle tracking), see also installation
information (04.00.547110).

Make sure that the adjusting plates (arrows) on the
bracket are correctly seated, make sure that inner and
outer adjusting plates of a bracket are set symmetrically!
The square on the spring bolt head (anti-rotation lock)
must sit in the slot of the adjusting plate.
