TOE-IN ADJUSTMENT
Loosen outer tie rod boot clip. Loosen tie rod end lock nuts. Turn tie rod to adjust toe-in. Ensure tie rod boot does not turn. Tighten tie rod lock nuts and boot clips. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS .
RIDE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
Before adjusting alignment, check riding height. Ride height must be checked with vehicle on level floor and tires properly inflated. Bounce vehicle several times and allow suspension to settle.
Visually inspect vehicle for signs of abnormal height from front to rear or side to side. Check passenger and luggage compartments for extra heavy items and remove if present. On 9-3, ride height between left and right side of vehicle should vary by less than 1" (25.4 mm). On 9-5, measure distance between lowest part of wheel and edge of fender or wheel housing. Height of vehicle at front and rear is average of 2 measurements rounded off to nearest .19" (5 mm). Check vehicle tire size for correct alignment specification. See WHEEL ALIGNMENT SPECIFICATIONS (9-5) table.
