1. Prepare vehicle for measuring wheel alignment.
2. Remove all foreign material from exposed threads of cam adjusting bolts.
3. Record initial camber and caster readings before loosening cam bolt nuts.
4. Camber settings should be held as close as possible to the "preferred" setting. Caster should be held as nearly equal as possible on both wheels.
See specifications.
The toe setting should be the final operation of the front wheel alignment adjustments. The front wheels must be in a straight ahead position. Follow
the equipment manufacturers procedure. The steering wheel should also be centered during this operation.
Turning the tie rod sleeve will "center" the steering wheel spokes. If the steering wheel was centered, make the toe-in adjustment by turning both
sleeves an equal amount.
