PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Procedure without Cowl Top Cover
INFOID:0000000003890157
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.
Precautions for SuspensionINFOID:0000000003811111
CAUTION:
 When installing rubber bushings, the final tightening must be carried out under unladen conditions
with tires on ground. Oil might shorten the life of rubber bushings. Be sure to wipe off any spilled oil.
- Unladen conditions mean that fuel, engine coolant and lubricant are full. Spare tire, jack, hand tools
and mats are in designated positions.
 After servicing suspension parts, be sure to check wheel alignment.
 Self-lock nuts are not reusable. Always use new ones when installing. Since new self-lock nuts are
pre-oiled, tighten as they are.

MOUNTING INSPECTION
Make sure the mounting conditions (looseness, backlash) of each component and component conditions
(wear, damage) are normal.
BALL JOINT AXIAL END PLAY
1. Set front wheels in a straight-ahead position.
CAUTION:
Never depress brake pedal when measuring.
2. Place an iron bar or equivalent between transverse link and steering knuckle.
3. Measure axial end play by prying it up and down.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage ball joint boot. Never damage the installation position by applying exces-
sive force.
STRUT ASSEMBLY
Check for oil leakage and damage. Replace if necessary.Standard
Axial end play : Refer to FSU-18, "

INSPECTION
Description
CAUTION:
 Camber, caster, kingpin inclination angles cannot be adjusted.
 If camber, caster, or kingpin inclination angle exceeds the standard value, check front suspension
parts for wear and damage. Replace suspect parts if a malfunction is detected.
 Kingpin inclination angle is reference value, no inspection is required.
Measure wheel alignment under unladen conditions.
NOTE:
“Unladen conditions” means that fuel, engine coolant, and lubricant are full. Spare tire, jack, hand tools and
mats are in designated positions.
Preliminary Check
Check the following:
 Tires for improper air pressure and wear
 Road wheels for runout: Refer to WT-2, "
Inspection".
 Wheel bearing axial end play: Refer to FA X - 6 , "
Inspection".
 Transverse link ball joint axial end play: Refer to FSU-11, "
Inspection".
 Strut operation.
 Each mounting part of axle and suspension for looseness and deformation
 Each of suspension member and transverse link for cracks, deformation and other damage
 Vehicle height (posture)
CAMBER, CASTER, AND KINGPIN INCLINATION ANGLES
 Camber, caster, kingpin inclination angles cannot be adjusted.
 Before inspection, mount front wheels onto turning radius gauge. Mount rear wheels onto a stand at the
same height so that vehicle remains horizontal.
Using a CCK Gauge
Install the CCK gauge attachment (SST: KV991040S0) with the following procedure on wheel, then measure
wheel alignment.
1. Remove three wheel to nuts, and install the guide bolts to hub
bolt.
2. Screw the adapter into the plate until it contacts the plate tightly.
3. Screw the center plate into the plate.
4. Insert the plate assembly on the guide bolt. Put the spring in,
and then evenly screw the three guide bolt nuts. When fastening
the guide nuts, do not completely compress the spring.
5. Place the dent of alignment gauge onto the projection of the
center plate and tightly contact them to measure.
CAUTION:
 If camber, caster, or kingpin inclination angle exceeds the
standard value, check front suspension parts for wear and
damage. Replace suspect parts if a malfunction is
detected.

WHEEL ALIGNMENT
 Kingpin inclination angle is reference value, no inspection is required.
Toe-In
Measure toe-in by the following procedure.
WARNING:
 Always perform the following procedure on a flat surface.
 Make sure that no person is in front of vehicle before pushing it.
1. Bounce front of vehicle up and down to stabilize the vehicle height (posture).
2. Push vehicle straight ahead about 5 m (16 ft).
3. Put matching mark (A) on base line of the tread (rear side) of
both tires at the same height of hub center. These are measur-
ing points.
4. Measure distance (A) (rear side).
5. Push vehicle slowly ahead to rotate wheels 180 degrees (1/2
turn).
NOTE:
If the wheels rotates more than 180 degrees (1/2 turn), start this
procedure again from the beginning. Do not push the vehicle
backward.
6. Measure distance (B) (front side).
 If toe-in exceeds the standard value, adjust toe-in by varying the length of between steering outer socket
and inner socket.
