Front Wheel Alignment






1. Install special tool as shown in illustration and slightly pre-tension.
2. Loosen suspension strut/wheel bearing housing connection.
3. Adjust camber by turning the spindle to specified setting.
4. Tighten suspension strut/wheel bearing housing connection.
5. Check camber and if necessary, repeat adjustment.

NOTE:
- Slight cant of tool is permitted
- Do not move steering with tool in place!
- Before adjusting camber, it is essential to examine all suspension components for damage (visual inspection) and to replace any damaged parts.
- Because bolts with a shank diameter of 71 mm diameter have been installed as standard it is no longer necessary to replace bolts to correct camber.
