Front Toe Adjustment

Front Toe Adjustment

Measure toe-in at the following locations:

* From the center of the tire treads (1) or from the inboard side of the tires
* At the front (1) and the rear (2) of the axle




* At the horizontal axis of the wheel

When setting the toe-in adjustment, neutralize the front suspension. Ensure that all component parts are in the same relative position when making the adjustment as they will be when in operation. In order to neutralize the suspension, roll the vehicle 3.5-4.5 meters (12-15 ft). When the vehicle is rolled forward, all normal tolerances in the suspension and the steering linkage are in the correct operating position. Neutralize the front suspension if the vehicle has been raised.

1. Loosen the tie rod end clamps.
2. Turn the tie rod using a pipe wrench until the wheels have the proper toe-in.

Angular toe-in (set) should be.03 degrees per wheel or 79 mm (.03 in) linear sum toe-in.

Notice: Refer to Fastener Notice in Cautions and Notices.

3. Tighten the tie rod end clamp nuts.

Tighten the tie rod end clamp nuts to 75 Nm (55 lb ft).
