ISSUE:
A steering drift or pull may be caused by excessive front wheel side-to-side caster angle differences.
ACTION:
If a front axle alignment check shows excessive (more than 3/4 degree split) side-to-side caster angle difference causing the vehicle to drift
or pull, install a new caster adjustment kit (E0TZ-3K064-A) which allows the front axle side-to-side caster angles to be changed up to 2-1/2
degrees in 1/2 degree increments. New front axle to radius arm brackets must also be replaced when the caster kit is installed. Refer to the
following service procedure for step-by-step instructions.
NOTE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BEFORE DOING WORK ON THE VEHICLE.
To correct caster side-to-side difference of up to 1- 1/2 degrees, install a caster adjuster plate on the radius arm that has the lower caster reading.
Adjuster plates are identified R.H. and L.H.
To correct caster side-to-side difference more than 1-1/2 degrees, install the caster plate on both radius arms. Installing both plates will allow a caster
split change of 2-1/2 degrees (+1-1/2 degrees on the low caster side, -1 degree on the high caster side).
1.
Remove radius arm from vehicle.
