Adjustment1) Loosen right and left tie-rod end lock nuts (1) first.
2) Rotate right and left tie-rods (2) by the same amount to align toe to specification. In this adjustment, the
lengths “A” of both right and left tie-rod should be
equal.
NOTE
Before rotating tie-rods (2), apply grease
between tie-rods and rack boots so that
boots won’t be twisted.

3) After adjustment, tighten lock nuts (1) to specified torque.
Tightening torque
Tie-rod end lock nut (a): 45 N·m (4.5 kgf-m, 32.5 lb-
ft)
NOTE
Make sure that rack boots are not twisted.

Camber and Caster Check
Check camber and caster by camber caster kingpin
gauge (1) and turning radius gauge (2).
If measured value is out of specified value, check
following items for damage, deformation and crack.
• Strut and component
• Suspension control arm and bush
• Suspension frame
• Wheel hub, steering knuckle or wheel bearing
• Vehicle body Front camber “a”
: 0
± 1°
Front caster “b”
: 5 °12’ ± 2°
NOTE
Front camber and caster are not adjustable.

Steering Angle Check and Adjustment
When tie-rod or tie-rod end was replaced, check toe and
then also steering angle with turning radius gauge.
If measured value is out of specified value, perform
inspection and adjustment of toe.
Steering angle
Inside: 33.8 ° ± 3 °
Outside: 29.8 ° (Reference)

Reference Information
Side slip
When checked with side slip tester, side slip should
satisfy following specification.Side slip
0 to IN 3.0 mm/m (0 to IN 0.118 in/3.3 ft)
If side slip is greatly di
fferent, toe or front wheel
alignment may not be correct.

Front Strut Assembly Removal and InstallationS7RS0B2206003
Removal
1) Remove windshield wipe r arms with wiper blades.
2) Remove cowl top covers referring to “Cowl Top
Components in Section 9K”.
NOTE
When servicing component parts of strut
assembly, remove stru t rod cap and then
loosen strut nut a little before removing strut
assembly. This will make service work easier.
Note that the nut must not be removed at this
point.

3) Hoist vehicle, allowing front suspension to hang free.
4) Remove wheel and disconn ect stabilizer joint (1)
from strut bracket.
When loosening joint nu t, hold stud with special
tools.

3) Install bump stopper onto strut rod. For installing
direction, refer to the figure in “Front Suspension
Construction”.
4) Pull strut rod as far up as possible and use care not to allow it to re tract into strut.
5) Install spring seat on coil spring and then spring upper seat (1) aligning “OUT” mark (3) on spring
upper seat and center of strut bracket (2).
6) Install strut bearing (3), strut support (2) and strut
support lower nut (1) in this sequence.
Tighten strut support lower nut (1) to specified
torque.
When tightening strut support lower nut, hold stud
with special tools.

• Inspect strut for oil leakage, damage or deformation.
• If defect is found, replace strut as an assembly unit, because it can not be disassembled.
• Inspect strut function re ferring to the following
procedures:
1) Check and adjust tire pressures as specified.
2) Bounce vehicle body up and down 3 or 4 times continuously by pushing front end of the vehicle side
body to check strut.
Also, note how many times vehicle body rebounds to
stop after force application.
3) Repeat the same procedure to the other strut to confirm that the both side struts equally respond.
If conditions of struts are in doubt, compare them with
known-good vehicle or strut.
• Inspect bearing for wear, abnormal noise or gripping. If defective, replace.
• Inspect coil spring seat for cracks or deformation.
If defective, replace.
• Inspect bump stopper for deterioration. If defective, replace.
• Inspect rebound stopper and strut mount for wear, cracks or deformation.
If defective, replace.

General Description
Front Drive Shaft ConstructionS7RS0B3101001
A constant velocity ball joint is used on the wheel side of both right and left side drive shaft assemblies. For A/T
vehicle, a tripod type constant velocity joint is used on the differential side and center shaft side. For M/T vehicle, a
double offset type constant velocity joint (DOJ) is used on the differential side and center shaft side. The drive shaft
can slide through the tripod joint or the double offset joint (DOJ) in the extension/contraction direction.
