TOE-IN

Standard value:

At the centre of tyre tread 3 ± 2 mm
Toe angle (per wheel) 0°07’ ± 05’

1.

  If the toe-in is not within the standard value, adjust the toe-in

by undoing the clip and turning the left and right tie rod
turnbuckles by the same amount (in opposite directions).

NOTE
The toe will move out as the left turnbuckle is turned toward
the front of the vehicle and the right turnbuckle is turned toward
the rear of the vehicle.

2.

  Use a turning radius gauge to check that the steering angle is

at the standard value.
(Refer to GROUP 37A – On-vehicle Service.)

TOE-OUT ANGLE ON TURNS
To check the steering linkage, especially after the vehicle has been
involved in an accident or if an accident is presumed, it is advisable
to check the toe-out angle on turns in addition to the wheel
alignment.
Conduct this test on the left turn as well as on the right turn.

Standard value (Inner wheel when outer wheel at 20°): 21°04’

CAMBER, CASTER AND KINGPIN INCLINATION

NOTE
1.

  Camber and caster are preset at the factory and cannot be

adjusted.

2.

  If camber is not within the standard value, check and replace

bent or damaged parts.

3.

  For vehicles with aluminium type wheels, attach the

camber/caster/kingpin gauge to the drive shaft by using the
special tool. Tighten the special tool to the same torque
226 Nm as the drive shaft nut.
