Toe-in Adjustment:




Sleeve Position:





Following adjustment of caster and camber, check steering wheel spoke position. If spokes are not in normal position, they can be properly adjusted while toe is being adjusted.
1. Loosen two clamp bolts on each spindle connecting rod sleeve. Fig. 3.
2. Adjust toe. If steering wheel spokes are in normal position, lengthen or shorten both rods equally to obtain correct toe.
3. If steering wheel spokes are not correct, make necessary rod adjustments to obtain correct toe and steering wheel alignment.
4. When toe and steering wheel position are both correct, lubricate clamp, bolts and nuts. Torque clamp bolts on both connecting rod sleeves to 20-22 ft. lbs.
5. Sleeve position should not be changed when clamp bolts are tightened for proper clamp bolt orientation. Fig. 5.
