3. CASTER
•INSPECTION
1) Place the front wheel on the turning radius
gauge. Make sure the ground contact surfaces of
front and rear wheels are at the same height.

attach the wheel alignment gauge.
3) Measure the caster angle in accordance with the
operation manual for wheel alignment gauge.
To i n c r e a s e c a m b e r :
Rotate the left side counterclockwise. Rotate the right side clockwise.
To d e c r e a s e c a m b e r :
Rotate the left side clockwise. Rotate the right side counterclockwise.

4. STEERING ANGLE
•INSPECTION
•ADJUSTMENT
1) Turn the tie-rod to adjust the steering angle of
both inner and outer wheels.
2) Check the toe–in.
NOTE:
Correct the boot if it is twisted.
5. FRONT WHEEL TOE–IN
•INSPECTION
Toe-in:
0±3 mm (0±0.12 in)
1) Set the toe-in gauge in the position at wheel axis
center height behind the right and left front tires.
2) Place a mark at the center of both left and right
tires, and measure distance “A” between the
marks.
3) Move the vehicle forward to rotate the tires 180°.
NOTE:
Be sure to rotate the tires in the forward direction.
4) Measure distance “B” between the left and right
marks. Find toe–in using the following equation:
A – B = Toe–in
•ADJUSTMENT
When adjusting the toe-in, adjust it to the following
value.
Toe-in:
0±2 mm (0±0.08 in)
1) Check that the left and right wheel steering an-
gles are within specification.
2) Loosen the left and right side steering tie–rod
lock nuts.
3) Turn the left and right tie–rods by equal amounts
until the toe–in is at the specification.
Both the left and right tie–rods are right–hand
threaded. To increase toe–in, turn both tie–rods
clockwise by equal amount (viewing from the inside
of vehicle).
4) Tighten the tie–rod lock nut.
Tightening torque:
85 N·m (8.7 kgf-m, 62.7 ft-lb)
NOTE:
Check and correct the tie rod boot if twisted.
6. REAR WHEEL TOE–IN
•INSPECTION
Toe-in:

1) Loosen the self-locking nut on the inner side of the front lateral link.
NOTE:
When loosening or tightening the adjusting bolt, hold the bolt head and turn the self–locking nut.
2) Turn the adjusting bolt until toe–in is within the specification.
NOTE:
When the left and right wheels are adjusted for toe–in at the same time, moving one mark on the scale chang-
es toe–in by approx. 3 mm (0.12 in).
3) Attach and tighten a new self–locking nut.
