Caster

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

1. Check the steering wheel angle; if significantly off center, it may be necessary to remove the steering wheel and reposition it on the splines. Turn the steering wheel to the straight ahead position.
2. Check the caster angle. Caster angle: (3°40'+1°) +2.67° to +4.67°.
3. If out of specification, check for damaged suspension components.
