19、ttach the tow-sling or wheel-lift equipment to the front end ofthe vehicle using the vehicle manufacturers recommended procedure if available.5.2.1.1 For tow-sling equipment, raise the front wheels to 102 mm (4 in) from the bottom of the tire above ground.5.2.1.2 For wheel-lift equipment, position r

20、etaining/L arms as recommended by the equipment manufacturer andraise the front wheels to 255 mm (10 in) from the bottom of the tire above ground.5.2.2 Determine the minimum ground clearance at the rear of the vehicle. Record the component closest to theground and the amount of clearance on the appl

21、icable test data sheet.5.2.2.1 If clearance is less than 4 in, use of a towing dolly is required.

22、e applicable position for towing and release the parkingbrake.NOTEThe following sequence is recommended, but not mandatory. Events may be resequenced aslong as all the tests are performed.5.2.4 CURB TEST (SLING VEHICLES ONLY)This test is to determine ground clearance. At creep speed, drive off a102

23、mm (4 in) curb with the towed vehicle centerline at 45 degrees to the curb on the right side. Repeat withthe towed vehicle centerline at 45 degrees to the curb on the left side.5.2.5 Conduct a visual inspection of the vehicle and towing equipment. Record any irregularities on the applicabletest data

24、 sheet.5.2.6 HIGH-FREQUENCY VERTICAL SHOCK TESTThis test is to induce vertical shock loads to determine stability ofvehicle attachments. (This test is not to determine ground clearance which is evaluated in other portions ofthis procedure; however, after test is completed, verify that no detrimental

25、 damage has occurred to thevehicle.) Drive 1.6 km (1 mile) at 24 km/h (15 mph) on Belgian-block type road as specified by the vehiclemanufacturer.5.2.7 Repeat 5.2.5.5.2.8 ROLL TESTThis test is to induce opposing roll between the towing and towed vehicles. Drive 0.8 km(0.5miles) at 56 km/h (35 mph) o

26、n twisted-plane type road as specified by the vehicle manufacturer.5.2.9 Repeat 5.2.5.5.2.10 PITCH TESTThis test is to induce pitch between the towing and the towed vehicles. Drive at 24 km/h(15mph) in the normal traffic lane through a 90-degree intersection of two highly crowned roads as specifiedb

27、y the vehicle manufacturer.5.2.11 Repeat 5.2.5.5.2.12 HIGHWAY TESTThis test is to evaluate both the handling characteristics of the combination during highwaytowing and the distance capabilities of the combination. Drive 80 km (50 miles) at 88 km/h (55 mph).Removal of axle shafts or driveshafts shou

28、ld be avoided and is not generally recommended. If required bythe vehicle manufacturers recommended towing procedure, driveshaft, or axle shafts as applicable, may bedisconnected or removed for towing on the drive wheels at these speeds and distance. The use of a dollymay be specified when towing on

29、 the drive wheels. Refer to SAE J1142, 3.5 and 4.6.5.COPYRIGHT Society of Automotive Engineers, Inc.Licensed by Information Handling ServicesSAE J1143 Revised FEB94-7-5.2.13 Repeat 5.2.5 (if applicable, reinstall driveshaft or axle shafts removed in 5.2.12).5.2.14 GRADE TESTThis test is to evaluate

30、approach, departure and breakover, and stability of the towingequipment on grades. Drive 15% grade (8.5 degrees) uphill. Repeat drive in downhill direction.

31、ation.5.2.15 Repeat 5.2.5.5.2.16 NORMAL BRAKE STOPThis test is to evaluate the stability of tow-sling equipment under normal brakingconditions. Recognizing that movement damage could occur, the recommended method should minimizesuch damage. Make normal brake stops from 8.0 km/h (5 mph) to 56 km/h (3

32、5 mph) in 8.0 km/h (5 mph)increments.5.2.17 Repeat 5.2.5.5.2.18 PANIC BRAKE STOPThis test is to evaluate the stability of tow-sling equipment under severe brakingconditions. Recognizing that major movement damage can occur, the recommended method shouldminimize such damage. Make panic brake stops (b

33、oth feet on brake pedal) from 8.0 km/h (5 mph) to 32 km/h (20 mph) in 8.0 km/h (5 mph) increments.5.2.19 Repeat 5.2.5.5.2.20 FINAL INSPECTIONDepending on towing equipment used, detach vehicle and inspect for bumper system, airdam, and paint damage; buckles in body or sheet metal; proper opening and

34、closing of doors, hood, anddeck lid (or tailgate); and deformation of fuel tank, filler pipe, transmission and engine oil pan, and exhaustsystem. Perform a general undercarriage inspection including T-hook, J-hook, or grab-hook attachmentpoints for deformation. Check front and rear wheel alignments

35、after the test vehicle has been driven at least1.6 km (1 mile) to normalize suspension components. Check the brake systems. Note observations and theresults of all inspections on test data sheet (Figure 3).5.2.21 Drive the vehicle to determine if the vehicle is operating normally.5.3 Rear Towing Tes
