Use commercially available computerized four wheel
alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment
(caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the
equipment manufacturer’s instructions.
1. Release the parking brake to avoid an incorrect measurement.
2. Check the toe.
 If adjustment is required, go to step 3.
 If no adjustment is required, go to turning angleinspection.
3. Hold the adjusting bolt (A) on the trailing arm (B), and loosen the self-locking nut (C).
4. Replace the self-locking nut with a new one, and lightly tighten it.
NOTE: Always use a new self-locking nut whenever it has been tightened to the specified torque.
 Reassemble the adjusting bolt and the adjusting cam plate with the eccentric facing up.
5. Adjust the rear toe by turning the adjusting bolt until the toe is correct.
6. Tighten the self-locking nut to the specified torque value while holding the adjusting bolt. Use commercially available computerized four wheel
alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment
(caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the
equipment manufacturer’s instructions.
1. Turn the wheel right and left while applying the brake, and measure the turning angle of both
wheels.
2. If the measurement is not within the specifications, even up both sides of the tie-rod threaded section
length while adjusting the front toe. If it is correct,
but the turning angle is not within the
specifications, check for bent or damaged
suspension components.
