Rear
Preliminary Inspection1. MAKE FOLLOWING CHECKS AND CORRECT ANY PROBLEMS
(a) Check the tires for wear, size and proper inflation pressure.
Cold tire inflation pressure:
FWD/5V21 and 4WD 2.1 kg/cm2 (30 psi, 206 kPa)
FWD/VZV21 1.9 kg/cm2 (27 psi, 186 kPa)
(b) Check the wheel runout.
Lateral runout: Less than 1.0 mm (0.039 in.)
(c) Check the rear suspension for looseness.
(e) Check that the rear shock absorbers function properly by using the standard bounce test.
2. MEASURE CHASSIS GROUND CLEARANCE
If the clearance of the vehicle is not standard, try to level by locking it down. If still not correct, check for bad springs or suspension parts.
Note: Before inspecting wheel alignment, adjust chassis ground clearance to specification.
3. INSPECT CAMBER
4. INSPECT TOE
Measuring Point Reference:
5. ADJUST TOE-IN
(a) Measure the distance between each wheel disc and corner of the cam bracket and confirm that both are the same.
Left-right error: Less than 3 mm (0.12 in.)
If the left-right error is greater than 3 mm (0.12 in.) adjust following the procedures below.
If the toe-in is out of the standard toward toe-out side, lengthen the shorter arm by the cam.
If the toe-in is out of the standard toward toe-in side, shorten the longer arm by the cam.
(b) Measure the toe-in.
If the left-right error is within specifications but the overall toe-in is not, lengthen or shorten both arms an equal amount by turning the two cams in the opposite direction, until the adjustment standard is obtained.
Note: The toe-in will change about:
1.5 mm (0.059 in.) for FWD
4.5 mm (0.177 in.) for 4WD
with each graduation of the cam (one side).
