Front Wheel Alignment

TOTAL TOE-IN
1. Remove the steering gear boot clamps.





2. Loosen the left and right tie rod 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 inch).





3. Tighten the tie rod locknuts to 60 - 98 Nm (51 - 72.3 ft. lbs.).
4. Verify that the boots are not twisted and install the boot clamps.

MAXIMUM STEERING ANGLE
1. Remove the steering gear boot clamps.





2. Loosen the left and right tie rod locknuts, and turn the tie rods equally to provide the correct maximum steering angle. Maximum left/right difference is 3 mm (0.12 inch).





3. Tighten the tie rod locknuts to 69 - 98 Nm (51 - 72.3 ft. lbs.).
4. Verify that the boots are not twisted and install the boot clamps.
5. Inspect and adjust the toe-in after adjusting the turning angle.








CAMBER AND CASTER
1. Jack up the front of the vehicle and support it on safety stands.
2. Remove the mounting block nuts.
3. Push the mounting block downward, and turn it to the desired position.





4. Install and tighten the mounting nuts to 47 - 62 Nm (33 - 46 ft. lbs.).
