Front Wheel Alignment

CASTER

Caster values are designed into the front suspension geometry and are not adjustable. If caster is not within specification, check for worn or damaged suspension components and replace as necessary.

CAMBER
Except 3 - Series

Although designed into the front suspension geometry, camber can be altered up to plus or minus 1/2° by installing eccentric upper mounting plates on the strut assembly. These mounts are marked with a + or - at the bolt bores. Depending on the situation, press knurled bolts into the bolt bores as required using press tool No. 31 3 130 or equivalent. After installation, ensure bolts are vertical and completely flush with mount.

3 - Series
Camber is preset during production and is not adjustable.

TOE-IN

Toe-in is adjusted by varying length of tie rod assemblies. To adjust toe-in, proceed as follows:

1. Position steering gear in straight ahead position.
2. Loosen tie rod sleeve retaining clamp nuts, then rotate both sleeves as required until toe value is within specification.
3. Ensure tie rod end ball stud is vertically centered, then tighten clamp nuts.
