Front Toe-In Adjustment

2. Turn tie rods into or out of tie rod ends an equal amount on each side. To increase toe-in, turn right tie rod toward front of vehicle, and turn left tie

rod toward rear of vehicle. To decrease toe-in, turn tie rods in opposite direction. One turn of each side tie rod changes toe-in by approximately 
0.28 inch.

3. Check front tracking. Always set tracking immediately after setting toe. Set tracking by using rear wheels as a reference point. Follow equipment

manufacturer's instructions to check tracking. Angle of each front wheel in relationship to rear wheels must be same.

4. Ensure toe-in is still within specifications, then torque jam nuts to 51-72 ft lb. Ensure steering gear boot ends are correctly positioned on

appropriate sections of tie rods, then install boot clips.

5. Measure turning angle by placing front wheels on a turning-radius gauge and fully turning wheels to left, then right.

REAR TOE-IN

1. Loosen cam nut on rear lateral link.
2. Turning adjusting cam bolt one graduation mark changes toe-in about 0.13 inch. Turning left cam bolt counterclockwise increases toe-in, turning

cam bolt clockwise increases toe-out. Turning right cam bolt clockwise increases toe-in, turning cam bolt counterclockwise increases toe-out.

3. Adjust toe-in to correct setting.
4. Torque cam nut to 58-86 ft lb.
