Caster and Camber

Caster and camber adjustments are made by means of cams on the upper control arm-to-frame attaching bolts. To adjust caster and camber, loosen upper control arm-to-frame attaching nuts. Rotate cam by rotating bolt head.

^ Caster - To increase caster, move the front cam so that the bolt moves outboard and move the rear cam so that the bolt moves inboard.
^ Caster Split - Caster split is adjustable on the upper right-hand front suspension arm bushing joint (3084) by loosening two nuts on the upper front suspension arm bushing joint and rotating the slider adjustment bolt.
^ Camber To increase camber, move both front and rear cam bolts outboard.






1. NOTE: Vehicle is aligned at the factory with square caster/camber plates. These plates must be replaced with four service cams prior to setting caster or camber. Caster split can be adjusted without replacing the square caster/camber plates. Use the slider adjustment on the right upper front suspension arm bushing joint.

NOTE: Prior to checking front end alignment, ride height must be checked and reset if necessary.

2. Measure vehicle caster and camber.
^ Refer to Specifications in this section to determine if the vehicle is within specifications.
3. If adjustment to caster split is necessary, loosen two nuts on upper right-hand front suspension arm bushing joint.
4. Adjust slider bolt until caster split is within specification.
5. Tighten nuts to 128-173 Nm (95-128 lb-ft).
6. If adjustment is necessary to caster or camber, loosen cam bolt nuts and rotate cam bolt until alignment is within specification.
7. Tighten nuts to 113-153 Nm (83-113 lb-ft).
8. Check alignment. If not optimal caster/camber setting, additional adjustment of the rotation of the cam may be required to obtain optimal alignment settings.
9. Once optimal caster/camber is achieved, reset front toe to specifications.
10. Check alignment and reset toe to specification.
