3. Loosen the inner locknut (A) while holding the tie-rod arm (B), and loosen the outer locknut (C) while holding the tie-rod end (D).
4. Turn the adjusting bolt (E) until the toe is correct.

5. After adjusting, tighten the locknuts while holding the tie-rod arm or tie-rod end. Make sure the arrow (A) on the tie-rod arm (B) and the aligning

mark (C) on the tie-rod end (D) are in line, viewing from the wheelhouse side along the axial direction of the tie-rod, on both right and left side of
the vehicle. Make sure the toe setting does not change.

Rear Toe Inspection
Use commercially-available computerized four wheel alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment (caster, camber, toe, and turning angle).
Follow the equipment manufacturer's instructions.
1. Release the parking brake.
2. Check the toe. If it is not within the specification, check for bent or damaged suspension components.

Rear toe-in: 3 ± 3 mm (1/8 ± 1/8 inch)

Turning Angle Inspection
Use commercially-available computerized four wheel alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment (caster, camber, toe, and turning angle).
Follow the equipment manufacturer's instructions.

1. Turn the steering wheel fully to the right and left while applying the brake, and check the turning angles of both front wheels. If the turning angle is

not within the specification or the inward turning angles differ between the right and left side, go to step 2.
Turning angle:
Inward: 40°00' ± 2° 
Outward: 33°00' (reference)

2. Check the toe. If it is correct, but the turning angle is not within the specification, check for bent or damaged suspension components.
