Rear Toe-In

Fig. 3 Toe Setting:





As viewed from above, the wheels must be set so that distances A and B, Fig. 3, measured at wheel rims and at axle height, are different at a given value. If distance A is smaller than distance B, the setting is known as toe-in. If distance A is greater than distance B, the setting is known as toe-out. The toe setting is given in inches (mm) and refers to the difference between A and B. If distances A and B are the same, the toe setting is 0.

Rear toe-in is preset to specifications and cannot adjusted. If rear toe-in is out of specification, bent or damaged components must be replaced.
