REAR WHEEL ALIGNMENT (FWD}
1. MAKE FOLLOWING CHECKS AND CORRECT ANY
PROBLEM
(d Check the tires for wear and proper inflation.
(See page FA-3)
(b) Check the rear wheel bearings for looseness.
(c) Check the wheel runout.
Lateral runout: 1.2 mm {0.047 in.l or less
(d) Check the rear suspension for looseness.
(e) Use the standard bounce test to check if the rear
absorbers work properly.
2. INSPECT VEHICLE HETGHT (See pase FA-51
INSTALL WHEEL ALIGNMENT EOUIPMENT
Follow the specific instructions of the equipment
manufacturer.
INSPECT CAMBER
Inspection standard: -5' t 3O' (Sedanl
-10' t 3O'(Wagonl
Left-right error: 30'
lf not within specification, inspect and replace any
damaged or worn rear suspension parts.
ADJUST TOE-IN
(a) Measure the distance between each wheel disc and
cam bolt center of the suspension arm and check
that both are the same.
Left-right error: 3 mm (0.12 in.) or less
(b) Move the vehicle forward a few meters with the rear
wheels in the straight-ahead position on a level place.
(c) Mark the center of each rear tread and measure the
distance between the marks of the right and left tires.
(d) Advance the vehicle until the marks on the rear of the
tires come to the front.
NOTE: The toe-in should be measured at the same point
on the tire and at the same level.

Toe-in:
Inspection STD 0 + 1 mm (0 + O.O4 in.)
(f) lf not within specification, turn the left and right toe-
in adjusting cams an equal amount to adjust.
NOTE: The toe-in willchange about 2 mm (0.08 in.) with
each graduation of the'cam (one side).
6. CHECK SIDE SIIP WITH SIDE SLIP TESTER
Side slip: 3.0 mm/m (0.118 in./3.3 ftl or less
lf the side slip is not within specification, the toe-in may
not be correct.
