1.INSPECT TIRE (See page 28±1) 2. MEASURE VEHICLE HEIGHT
Vehicle height:
(Normal package)
FrontA ± B: 92 mm (3.62 in.)
RearD ± C: 61 mm (2.40 in.)
(Rough road package)
FrontA ± B: 72 mm (2.83 in.)
RearD ± C: 41 mm (1.61 in.)
Measuring points:
A: Ground clearance of front wheel center
B: Ground clearance of lower suspension arm front bolt
center
C: Ground clearance of toe control arm inner bolt center
D: Ground clearance of rear wheel center
NOTICE:
Before inspecting the wheel alignment, adjust the vehicle
height to the specified value.
If the vehicle height is not the specified value, adjust it by push-
ing down or lifting the body.
3. INSPECT TOE±IN
Toe±in:
Toe±in(total)A + B: 0 06' 12' (0.1 0.2 )
C ± D: 1 2 mm (0.04 0.08 in.)
If the toe±in is not within the specified value, adjust it at the rack
ends.
4. ADJUST TOE±IN
(a) Remove the rack boot set clips.
(b) Loosen the tie rod end lock nuts.
(c) Turn the right and left rack ends by an equal amount to
adjust the toe±in.
HINT:
Adjust the toe±in to the center of the specified value as much
as possible.
(d) Make sure that the lengths of the right and left rack ends are the same.
(e) Torque the tie rod end lock nuts.
Torque: 74 N´m (755 kgf´cm, 55 ft´lbf)
(f) Place the boots on the seats and install the clips.
HINT:
Make sure that the boots are not twisted.

If the right and left inside wheel angles differ from the specified
value, check the right and left rack end lengths.
6. INSPECT CAMBER, CASTER AND STEERING AXIS
INCLINATION
(a) Install the camber±caster±kingpin gauge or position the
vehicle on the wheel alignment tester.
(b) Inspect the camber, caster and steering axis inclination.
Camber, caster and steering axis inclination:

If the caster and steering axis inclination are not within the spe-
cified values, after the camber has been correctly adjusted, re-
check the suspension parts for damaged and/or worn out parts.

7. ADJUST CAMBER
NOTICE:
After the camber has been adjusted, inspect the toe±in.
(a) Remove the front wheel.
(b) Remove the 2 bolts and nuts on the lower side of the
shock absorber.
If reusing the bolts and/or nuts, coat the threads of nuts with en-
gine oil.
(c) Clean the installation surfaces of the shock absorber and
