FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT

CAUTION:

When using a commercially available computerized wheel alignment equipment to inspect the front wheel alignment, always position the vehicle on a
level surface with the front wheels facing straight ahead.
Prior to inspection, make sure that the front suspension and steering system are in normal operating condition and that the tires are inflated to the
specified pressure.

Toe

B - A > 0: Toe in (+)

Toe adjustment

1. Loosen the tie rod end lock nut.
2. Remove the bellows clip to prevent the bellows from being twisted.
3. Adjust the toe by screwing or unscrewing the tie rod. Toe adjustment should be made by turning the right and left tie rods by the same amount.

Toe: 0±2mm (0±0.079in.)

4. When completing the toe adjustment, install the bellows clip and tighten the tie rod end lock nut to specified torque.

Tightening torque Nm (kgf.m, lb-ft):
50 - 55 (5.0 - 5.5, 36 - 40)

Camber and Caster

Camber and Caster are pre-set at the factory, so they do not need to be adjusted. If the camber and caster are not within the standard value, replace or
repair the damaged parts and then inspect again.

Camber angle: -0.5°±30'
