Ford Mustang (1999-2004) Service Manual: Wheel Hub or Axle Flange Bolt Circle Runout
NOTE: The brake discs must be removed to carry out all runout measurements.
1. Position the special tool perpendicular to the wheel hub or axle flange bolt, as close to the hub or flange face as possible. Zero the indicator to allow the pointer to deflect either way.

The difference between the maximum and minimum contact readings will be the total wheel hub or axle flange bolt pattern runout. The runout must not exceed 0.38 mm (0.015 inch).
