Camber Adjustment - Rear

Camber Adjustment - Rear

NOTE: Air suspension vehicles must be at trim ride height prior to measuring or adjusting the rear camber or toe.

1. Using alignment equipment and the manufacturers instructions, measure the rear caster.
^ Refer to Alignment Specifications for optimal alignment settings.
^ If the rear caster value is not within specification, go to the next step.
2. Determine desired camber adjustment (subtract the specified camber angle from the measured camber angle).





3. Mark a scribe line on the upper arm-to-wheel knuckle bolt head and upper arm.

4. Use the following table to determine the camber adjustment required. Obtained by subtracting the specified camber angle from the measure camber angle.
5. Remove the upper arm-to-knuckle nut and install a new one until snug.

6. NOTE: Support the vehicle at the lower arm to ease the wheel knuckle movement in the upper arm slot.

Position the upper arm-to-knuckle bolt in the upper arm slot as required to adjust the camber angle to the value obtained in Step 4.
7. Tighten the upper arm-to-knuckle nut to 150 Nm (111 ft. lbs.).
8. Recheck the camber setting, adjust as necessary.
9. Check and, if necessary, adjust the rear toe.
