Honda Accord 2001 Alignment Specifications
First introduced in 1976, the Accord is a mid-sized family vehicle manufactured by Honda and sold internationally. All Accord sedans require periodic adjustment, often erred to as "alignment." The factory specifications for the alignment are the same for all 2001 Accord models. These specifications stem from a vehicle at curb height with one-half tank of fuel.
Camber
Measured in degrees, camber represents the outward or inward tilt of the wheel in relation to the center of the vehicle. The Accord camber angle should be the same on both left and right wheels. Camber angles must be +0.0 degrees with the measuring accuracy of 0.1 degree on the front wheels and -0.30 degrees with the measuring accuracy of 0.1 degree on the rear wheels.
Caster
Caster represents both the rearward and the forward tilt of the steering knuckle from the true vertical. Caster is the measurement in angles that is responsible for directional stability. The Accord caster angle should be the same on both rear and front wheels. The angle must be +2.48 degrees with the maximum allowable difference of 0.1 degree.
Toe
Toe represents the difference between the leading and trailing inside edges of the front wheels. The factory specification for the 2001 Accord is 0 mm with maximum allowable difference of 2 mm (0, 1/16 inches).
