Toe-In Inspection

TOE-IN INSPECTION
Measure toe-in using the following procedure.

WARNING:
- Always perform the following procedure on a flat surface.
- Make sure that no person is in front of vehicle before pushing it.

1. Bounce the front of vehicle up and down to stabilize the vehicle height (posture).
2. Push vehicle straight ahead about 5 m (16 ft).





3. Put a mark on base line of the tread (rear side) of both tires at the same height of hub center. These are measuring points.





4. Measure distance A (rear side).
5. Push vehicle slowly ahead to rotate wheels 180° (1/2 turn).

CAUTION: If wheels have rotated more than 180° (1/2 turn), try the above procedure again from the beginning. Never push vehicle backward.

6. Measure distance B (front side).
7. Use the formula below to calculate total toe-in.
Total toe-in = A - B
For total toe-in specification, refer to FSU-19, "Wheel Alignment (Unladen*)". Specifications
- If the total toe-in is outside the specification, adjust toe-in by varying the length of between steering outer socket and inner socket.
