7. Raise the front of the vehicle, and support it with

safety stands in the proper locations (see page
1-12).

8. Remove the front wheels.

9. Replace the damper pinch bolts with the adjusting

bolts (A), and adjust the camber angle.

NOTE: The camber angle can be adjusted up to

15’ (center of tolerance) by replacing one damper

pinch bolt with the adjusting bolt. The camber
angle can be adjusted up to

30’ by replacing both

upper and lower damper pinch bolts with the
adjusting bolts.

10. Tighten the bolts to the specified torque values.

11. Reinstall the front wheels. Lower the front of the

vehicle to the ground, and bounce the vehicle
several times to stabilize the suspension.

12. Check the camber angle. If it is within the

specification, check the front toe, and adjust it if
necessary. If it is not within the specification,
readjust, and recheck. If the camber angle cannot
be adjusted to the specification, check for bent or
damaged suspension components.

Use commercially available computerized four wheel
alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment
(caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the
equipment manufacturer’s instructions.

Check the camber angle. If the camber angle is not
within the specification, check for bent or damaged
suspension components.

Do not loosen the special bolts on the trailing arm.

Use commercially available computerized four wheel
alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment
(caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the
equipment manufacturer’s instructions.

1. Check the tire pressure.

2. Center the steering wheel spokes and install a

commercially available steering wheel holder tool.

3. Check the toe. If it is not within the specification, go

to step 4.

4. Loosen the locknut (A) while holding the tie-rod end

(B).

5. Turn the tie-rod (C) until the toe is correct.

NOTE: Adjust both the right and left wheels at the
same time by the same amount in opposite
directions to obtain the correct toe and to keep the
steering wheel straight.

6. After adjusting, tighten the locknut while holding

the tie-rod arm. Make sure the toe setting does not
change.

Use commercially available computerized four wheel
alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment
(caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the
equipment manufacturer’s instructions.

1. Release the parking brake.

2. Check the toe. If it is not within the specification, go

to step 3.

3. Loosen the self-locking nut (A) while holding the

adjusting bolt (B).

Do not loosen the special bolts (C) on the
trailing arm.

4. Replace the self-locking nut with a new one, and

lightly tighten it.

NOTE: Always use a new self-locking nut whenever
it has been loosened.

5. Adjust the adjusting bolt until the toe is correct.

6. Tighten the self-locking nut to the specified torque

value while holding the adjusting bolt.

Use commercially available computerized four wheel
alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment
(caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the
equipment manufacturer’s instructions.

1. Turn the steering wheel fully to the right and left

while applying the brake, and check the turning
angles of both front wheels. If the turning angle is
not within the specification or the inward turning
angles differ between the right and left side, go to
step 2.

2. Check the toe. If it is correct, but the turning angle

is not within the specification, check for bent or
damaged suspension components.

1. Raise the vehicle, and support it with safety stands

in the proper locations (see page 1-12).

2. Remove the wheel.

3. Install suitable flat washers (A) and wheel nuts, and

tighten the nuts to the specified torque value to
hold the brake disc securely against the hub.

4. Set up the dial gauge against the hub flange as

shown, and measure the bearing end play by
moving the brake disc inward and outward.

5. If the bearing end play is more than the standard,

replace the wheel bearing.

Wheel Runout Inspection

1. Raise the vehicle, and support it with safety stands

in the proper locations (see page 1-12).

2. Check for a bent or deformed wheels.

3. Set up the dial gauge as shown, and measure axial

runout by turning the wheel.

4. Reset the dial gauge to the position shown, and

measure the radial runout.

5. If the wheel runout is not within the specification,

check the wheel bearing end play (see page 18-8),
and make sure the mating surfaces on the brake
disc and the inside of the wheel are clean.

6. If the bearing end play is within the specification

but the wheel runout is more than the service limit,
replace the wheel.
