Loosen the upper arm shaft bolt and insert or remove adjustment shims to provide the correct angle. No. | Thickness (mm) | 1 | 1.0 {0.039} | 2 | 1.6 {0.063} | 3 | 2.0 {0.079} | 4 | 3.2 {0.126} | 5 | 4.0 {0.157} | 6 | 0.6 {0.024} | 7 | 1.0 {0.039} | 8 | 1.6 {0.063} | 9 | 2.0 {0.079} | 10 | 3.2 {0.126} | 11 | 4.0 {0.157} | - Shims No.1—5 are used on either side. Do not use more than two.
- Shims No.6—11 are used at the front and rear of either sides. Do not use more than one.
- Camber (Shims No.1—5): A change of shim thickness of 1 mm {0.039 in} results as follows:
Shim thickness | Variation/1 mm {0.039 in} | Add | Negative 15' | Reduce | Positive 15' | - Caster (Shims No.6—11): A change of shim thickness (at front or rear only) of 1 mm {0.039 in} results as follows:
| Shim thickness | Variation/1 mm {0.039 in} | Front side | Add | Increase 30' | Reduce | Decrease 30' | Rear side | Add | Decrease 30' | Reduce | Increase 30' | | | -
After adjustment, tighten the upper arm shaft bolt to the specified torque. - Tightening torque 150—172 Nm {15.3 - 17.5 kgf m, 111 - 126 ft lbf}.
