ADJUSTMENTS
Note. While performing following procedures, perform rear wheel alignment first to ensure proper front alignment angles.
CAMBER ADJUSTMENT
To adjust front camber, loosen 2 strut-to-steering knuckle bolts. (Scheme 1) Move top of wheel in or out to obtain correct camber specification. While holding wheel in position, tighten 2 strut-to-steering knuckle bolts. Rear camber is not adjustable. If rear camber is not to specification, repair or replace damaged or worn suspension or body parts.
Scheme 1
CASTER ADJUSTMENT
Caster is not adjustable. If caster is not to specification, check for worn or damaged suspension or body parts. Repair or replace as necessary.
TOE-IN ADJUSTMENT (FRONT)
Loosen tie rod end lock nut. (Scheme 2) Loosen steering gear dust boot clamp(s) at tie rod end. Turn inner tie rod to obtain correct toe-in. Tighten lock nut to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS. Ensure steering gear dust boot is straight after adjustment. Tighten dust boot clamp.
Scheme 2
TOE-IN ADJUSTMENT (REAR)
Rear toe-in is not adjustable. If rear toe-in is not to specification, repair or replace worn or damaged components.
