Adjusting front axle toe
Adjusting front axle toe
   
–  Loosen lock nut -1-.
–  Adjust toe by turning left and/or right track rod.
To do this use an open-end spanner on the hexagon -arrow- on the track rod.
After turning track rods, ensure that bellows are not twisted.
Twisted bellows wear out quickly.
–  Tighten lock nut -1-.
–  Check toe values again.
It is possible that the value will change slightly when lock nut -1- is tightened.
However, if the measured toe value lies within the tolerance, the adjustment is correct.
