6.  Verify that the boot is not twisted, and install the boot clamp.

7.  Adjust the toe-in after adjusting the steering angle. (See Total Toe-in Adjustment.)


Total Toe-in Adjustment

1.  Loosen the locknut of the tie-rod end.

2.  Remove the rack boot clamp.

3.  Adjust the total toe-in by rotating each tie rod (left and right) in the opposite directions by the same amount respectively.

Note
•  Toe angle changes by approx. 4 mm {0.2 in} per one rotation of the tie rod for one wheel.
•  Each tie rod has a right-hand thread. When increasing the toe-in angle, rotate the right tie rod toward the front of the vehicle and rotate the left tie rod toward the rear of the vehicle by the same amount.

4.  Tighten the locknut of the tie-rod end.

5.  Verify that the rack boot does not have any twisting and install the rack boot clamp.
