         WHEEL ALIGNMENT PROCEDURES

NOTE:    On vehicles with electronic chassis controls, ensure all

         systems are functional before attempting to adjust riding

         height or wheel alignment.

         CAMBER ADJUSTMENT

         Montero, Pickup & Ram-50

         1)  Check tire inflation. Place front wheel on turning radius

gauge, and level vehicle (unladed). On 2WD models, remove hub cap and

cotter pin. On 4WD models, remove free wheeling hub assembly.

         2) On all models, measure camber with camber/caster/kingpin

gauge attached. See appropriate WHEEL ALIGNMENT SPECIFICATIONS table.

If camber is not within specification, remove shock absorber mounting

nut and lock nut.

         3) Compress shock absorber and loosen upper arm mounting

bolts and nuts. Adjust camber by increasing or decreasing shims

between upper arm shaft and crossmember. See  Fig. 1.

CAUTION:  Difference in shim thickness between front and rear must be

          .16" (4 mm) or less. DO NOT use more than 3 shims at one

          location.
