Toe-in can be changed by changing the length of tie rods. When tie rods are mounted ahead of steering knuckle they must be decreased in length in order to increase toe-in.

1. Loosen clamp bolts at each end of steering tie rod adjustment sleeve. On models with rack and pinion steering loosen jam nut. With steering wheel set in straight ahead position, turn tie rod adjusting sleeves to obtain the proper toe-in adjustment.
2. When adjustment is completed, check to see that the number of threads showing on each end of sleeve are equal and that tie rod end housing are at right angles to steering arm. Position tie rod clamps and sleeves. (Scheme 2) Tighten to specifications. On rack and pinion models tighten jam nut when set to proper specifications.
