ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
CAMBER AND CASTER
1. Install CCK gauge attachment (SST: KV991040S0) as following procedure in wheel.
a. Remove wheel nuts (2), and install a guide bolt to hub bolt.
b. Screw center plate into plate.
c. Insert plate on guide bolt. Put spring in, and then evenly screw
both guide bolt nut. When fastening guide bolt nut, do not com-
pletely compress spring.
CAUTION:
Do not use any adapter for attaching the attachment.
d. Place the dent of alignment gauge onto the projection of center
plate and tightly contact them to measure.
2. Measure camber and caster of both the right and left wheels
with a suitable alignment gauge and adjust as necessary to
specifications.
3. If outside of the specified value, adjust camber and caster using
the adjusting bolts in the front lower link.
CAUTION:
After adjusting the camber then check the toe-in.
NOTE:
Camber changes about 0°7' (0.12°), and caster changes about
0°12' (0.20°) with each graduation of one adjusting bolt. Refer to
table below for examples of lower link adjusting bolt effect on
camber and caster.
4. Tighten the adjusting bolt nuts to specification. Refer toFSU-6, "
Components".
TOE-IN
WARNING:
lAlways perform the following procedure on a flat surface.
lMake sure that no person is in front of the vehicle before pushing it.
1. Bounce the front of vehicle up and down to stabilize the vehicle height (posture).
2. Push the vehicle straight ahead about 5 m (16 ft).

3. Put a mark on base line of the tread (rear side) of both front tires
at the same height as hub center as shown. These marks are
measuring points.
4. Measure the distance “A” on the rear side of the front tires as
shown.
5. Push the vehicle slowly ahead to rotate the wheels 180°
degrees (1/2 a turn).
CAUTION:
If the wheels have rotated more than 180°degrees (1/2
turn), start this procedure again from the beginning. Never
push the vehicle backward.
6. Measure the distance “B” on the front side of the front tires at the
same marks as shown. Total toe-in is calculated as “A” – “B”.
7. Adjust the toe-in by varying the length of the steering outer tie-
rods.
a. Loosen the outer tie-rod lock nuts.
b. Adjust the toe-in by screwing the outer tie-rods in or out.
c. Tighten the outer tie-rod lock nuts to specification.
FRONT WHEEL TURNING ANGLE
NOTE:
Check front wheel turning angle after the toe-in inspection.
1. Place front wheels on turning radius gauges in straight ahead
position and rear wheels on stands so that vehicle can be level.
Check the maximum inner and outer wheel turning angles for LH
and RH road wheels.
2. Start engine and run at idle, turn steering wheel all the way right
and left, measure the turning angle.
lAny turning angles are not adjustable. If any of steering
angles are out of the specification, check if the following parts
are worn or damaged.
–Steering gear
–Steering column
–Front suspension components
If found that they are worn or damaged, replace them with new ones.
