Front Toe Adjustment

1. Loosen the jam nuts on the tie rod (1).

Notice: Care must be taken so that the boots are not twisted when rotating the inner tie rod, or damage to the boots may result.

2. Rotate the inner tie rod to the required toe specification setting.

NOTICE: Always use the correct fastener in the proper location. When you replace a fastener, use ONLY the exact part number for that application. The manufacturer will call out those fasteners that require a replacement after removal. The manufacturer will also call out the fasteners that require thread lockers or thread sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, do not use supplemental coatings (paints, greases, or other corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or fastener joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings adversely affect the fastener torque and joint clamping force, and may damage the fastener. When you install fasteners, use the correct tightening sequence and specifications. Following these instructions can help you avoid damage to parts and systems.

3. Tighten the jam nuts on the tie rods.

Tighten the jam nuts to 64 Nm (47 ft. lbs.).

4. Recheck the toe settings after tightening the jam nuts.
5. Readjust the toe setting if necessary.
