WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1992 Honda Prelude, 1992 Honda Civic, and 1992 Honda Accord. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Secure steering wheel in straight-ahead position. Measure front wheel toe-in. See WHEEL ALIGNMENT SPECIFICATIONS . If adjustment is needed, loosen tie rod lock nuts. Turn both tie rods equally in the same direction until front wheels are in straight-ahead position and toe-in reading is correct. Tighten tie rod lock nuts. Reposition tie rod boots if twisted. Tighten adjusting bolts.
  2. Ensure parking brake is released. Check rear wheel toe-in. If adjustment is needed, hold adjusting bolt on rear compensator arm and loosen lock nut. See Fig 1. Adjust rear toe-in by sliding rear control arm until rear toe-in is correct. Install NEW lock nut, and tighten it while holding adjusting bolt.
