1. The caster and camber adjustments are made by rotating the offset cam bolt and the cam in the slotted frame bracket in order to reposition the
control arm.
Note: Before adjusting the caster and camber angles, jounce the front bumper three times to allow the vehicle to return to normal height.
Measure and adjust the caster and the camber with the vehicle at curb height. The front suspension Z dimension is indicated in Trim Heights. Refer
to Trim Height Specifications (See: Specifications/Mechanical Specifications/Suspension/System Specifications/Trim Height Specifications).
For an accurate reading, do not push or pull on the tires during the alignment process.
