Standard value:
-0”lO’ + 30’
To adjust camber, turn the lower arm mounting bolt on the
crossmember side.
NOTE
12FOO21Left wheel: Clockwise (0 camber)
Right wheel: Clockwise
(0 camber)
The difference between the right and left wheels
shoiuld be 30’
or less.
One graduation changes camber by about 12’.

To adjust toe, turn the trailing arm mounting bolts on the
crossmember side on both sides the same amount.
NOTELeft wheel: Clockwise (toe-in)
Right wheel: Clockwise (toe-out)
The difference between right and left wheels should be 3 mm
(.12 in.) or less.
One graduation changes toe by about 2 mm
(.08 in.).
Caution
1. Adjust the eccentric cam bolt within 90” from’ the
central position.
2.Adjust camber and toe, in that order, and, if camber is
adjusted, be sure to adjust toe also.
3.For the vehicles with 4WS, make the adjustments with
the 4WS tie rod end disconnected from the trailing arm.

/ 6.
STEERING LOCK BRACKET / 5. SPECIAL BOLT
(1) When installing the steering lock cylinder and steering
lock bracket to the column tube, temporarily install the
steering lock in alignment with the column boss.
(2) After checking that the lock works properly, tighten the
special bolts until the head twists off.
CautionThe steering lock bracket and bolts must be re-
placed with new ones when the steering lock
cylinder is installed.3. INSTALLATION OF BEARING
(1) Fill the inside of the bearing with multipurpose grease.
(2) Install the bearings to the shaft on the joint assembly.
(3) Wrap vinyl tape approximately one and one-half times
around the concave circumferences of the bearings,
and then press fit the bearings into the cover assembly.
