Maximum Steering Angle Adjustment
- Loosen the tie-rod end locknuts.
- Remove the steering gear boot clamp.
- Turn the tie rods. Standard length L 15.7-22.7 mm {0.619-0.893 in}
- Turn the tie rods equally to provide the correct maximum steering angle.
- Tighten the tie-rod end locknuts. Tightening torque 69-98 N.m {7.1-9.9 kgf.m, 51-72 ft.lbf}
- Verify that the boot is not twisted, and install the boot damp.
- Adjust the toe-in after adjusting the steering angle.
Scheme 2
Total Toe-in Adjustment
- Center the steering wheel and confirm that the vehicle wheels/tires are pointing straight.
- Loosen the left and right tie-rod end locknuts and turn the tie-rods equally. Both tie rods are right threaded, so turning the right tie-rod toward the front of the vehicle and the left toward the rear increases toe-in. NOTE: Turning both tie-rods one complete turn changes toe-in by about 6 mm {0.24 in} (0°36') .
- Tighten the tie-rod end locknuts to the specified torque. Tightening torque 69-98 N.m {7.1-9.9 kgf.m, 51-72 ft.lbf}
- Verify that the boot is not: twisted, and install the boot clamp.
