-
*1 :
Engine coolant and engine oil are at specified level. Spare tire, jack and tools are in designated position.
-
*2 :
Difference between left and right must not exceed 1°30' .
Maximum Steering Angle Adjustment
1. Loosen the tie-rod end locknuts.
2. Remove the steering gear boot clamp.
3. Turn the tie rods to equalize length L.
Maximum left/right difference
-
3 mm {0.12 in}
4. Turn the tie rods equally to provide the correct maximum steering angle.
5. Tighten the tie-rod end locknuts.
Tightening torque
-
68.6-98.0 N·m {7.00-9.99 kgf·m, 50.6-72.2 ft·lbf}
6. Verify that the boot is not twisted, and install the boot clamp.
7. Adjust the toe-in after adjusting the steering angle.
Total Toe-in Adjustment
1. Center the steering wheel and confirm that the vehicle wheels/tires are pointing straight.
2. Loosen the left and right tie-rod end locknuts and turn the tie rods equally. Both tie rods are right threaded, so turning the right tie rod toward the front of the vehicle and the left toward the rear increases toe-in.
-
Note
-
• Turning both tie rods one complete turn changes toe-in by about 6 mm {0.24 in} (0°36').
3. Tighten the tie-rod end locknuts to the specified torque.
Tightening torque

68.6-98.0 N·m {7.00-9.99 kgf·m, 50.6-72.2 ft·lbf}
