3. Check the type and orientation of the installed adjuster.
NOTE: The assembly plant sometimes builds vehicles with adjusters that are not 0-degree type to control alignment. The above chart shows the
alignment changes that will occur if the vehicle was originally built with 0-degree adjusters.
4. Select a new service adjuster and its orientation in the axle to obtain the optimum caster/camber. Note that the caster change or camber change
required to obtain the optimum settings must be added to amounts of caster/camber in the old or production adjuster.
Use this example as a guide. If caster must be reduced 1 degree and camber increased +0.75 degree at the LH wheel, and the existing adjuster has
+0.25-degree caster as installed, select the 1-degree service adjuster and orient the slot 225 degrees from the straight-ahead position. In all cases,
select the adjuster and orientation that will bring the alignment closest to the optimal settings.
5. Raise the vehicle and remove the front wheel.
6. Loosen the pinch bolt at the front suspension upper ball joint and pry the adjuster out of the axle.
