Front Wheel Alignment
FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT
When using a wheel alignment tester to inspect front wheel alignment, always position the car on a level surface and the front wheels in the straight
ahead position. Prior to inspection make sure that the front suspension and steering system are in normal operating condition and that wheels and tires
are free of deflection and tires are inflated to specification.
TOE-IN
Toe-in (B-A or angle a) is adjusted by turning the tie rod turnbuckles. Toe-in on the left front wheel can be reduced by turning the tie rod toward the
rear of the car. Toe change is achieved by turning the tie for the right and left wheels simultaneously the same amount as follows:
Toe (B-A) mm (inch) [Standard value]: 0 ± 3 (0 ± 0.12)
NOTE:
-
Toe-in adjustment should be made by turning the right and left tie rods the same amount.
-
When adjusting toe-in, loosen the outer bellows clip to prevent twisting the bellows. After the adjustment, firmly tighten the tie rod end lock nuts
and reinstall the bellows clip.
