Front Camber Adjustment

FRONT CAMBER ADJUSTMENT





1. Reach around the tire, using the appropriate extension and socket.





2. Loosen both strut to knuckle nuts just enough to allow for movement.





3. If the strut has not been modified previously, perform the following steps before continuing with the wheel alignment:

1. Disconnect the strut from the knuckle. Refer to Strut Assembly Replacement. Strut Assembly Replacement

2. File the lower hole until the outer flange slot matches the inner flange slot.

3. Connect the strut to the knuckle. Refer to Strut Assembly Replacement. Strut Assembly Replacement





4. Adjust the camber to specification by moving the top of the wheel in or out. Refer to Wheel Alignment Specifications. Specifications





Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

5. Install the strut to knuckle nuts.

Tighten the nuts to 120 Nm (89 lb ft).
