FRONT WHEEL TOE-IN
-
Inspection
1) Using a toe gauge, measure front wheel toe-in.
Toe-in: 0 ± 3 mm (0 ± 0.12 in)
2) Mark rear sides of left and right tires at height corresponding to center of spindles and measure distance "B" between marks.
3) Move vehicle forward so that marks line up with front sides at height corresponding to center of spindles.
4) Measure distance "A" between left and right marks.
Toe-in can then be obtained by the following equation:
B - A = Toe-in
-
Adjustment
1) Loosen the left and right side setting tie-rods lock nuts.
2) Turn the left and right tie rods equal amounts until the toe-in is at the middle value of specifications.
Both the left and right tie-rods are right-hand threaded. To increase toe-in, turn both tie-rods clockwise equal amounts (as viewed from the
inside of the vehicle).
3) Tighten tie-rod lock nut.
Tightening torque:
83 ± 5 Nm (8.5 ± 0.5 kg-m, 61.5 ± 3.6 ft-Ib.)
CAUTION: Correct tie-rod boot, if it is twisted.
NOTE: Check the left and right wheel steering angle is within specifications.
