Toe Adjustment

STANDARD PROCEDURE - TOE POSITION
Before each alignment reading the vehicle should be jounced (rear first, then front). Grasp each bumper at the center and jounce the vehicle up and down three times. Always release the bumper in the down position.

NOTE: The wheel toe position adjustment is the final adjustment. This adjustment must be performed with the engine running, if the vehicle is equipped with power steering.

1. Start the engine and turn wheels both ways before straightening the steering wheel. Center and secure the steering wheel.





2. Loosen the adjustment sleeve clamp bolts.





3. Adjust the right wheel toe position with the drag link. Turn the sleeve until the right wheel is at the correct positive TOE-IN position. Position the clamp bolts as shown and tighten to 49 Nm (36 ft. lbs.). Make sure the toe setting does not change during clamp tightening
4. Adjust the left wheel toe position with the tie rod. Turn the sleeve until the left wheel is at the same TOE-IN position as the right wheel. Position the clamp bolts as shown and tighten to 27 Nm (20 ft. lbs.). Make sure the toe setting does not change during clamp tightening.
5. Verify the right toe specifications and turn off the engine.
