Rear Wheel Alignment: Inspection
- MEASURE VEHICLE HEIGHT (See FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT )
- INSTALL CAMBER-CASTER-KINGPIN GAUGE ONTO WHEEL ALIGNMENT TESTER
Follow the specific instructions of the equipment manufacturer.
- INSPECT CAMBER CAMBER REFERENCE
Camber Left-right error -0°47' +/- 30' (-0.78° +/- 0.5°) 30' (0.5°) or less - INSPECT TOE-IN TOE-IN REFERENCE
Toe-in (total) A + B: 0°08' +/- 12' (0.13° +/- 0.2°) Toe-in (total) C - D: 1.4 +/- 2 mm (0.056 +/- 0.08 in.) - ADJUST CAMBER AND TOE-IN
- Measure the lengths of the toe control link and No.2 lower suspension arm, as shown in the illustration.
Length: A - B = 4.0 mm (0.16 in.) or less
If they are not within the specifications, adjust the lengths of them by turning the adjusting cam, as shown, until (A - B) is less than 4.0 mm (0.16 in.).
- Measure the camber and toe-in.
- Adjust the camber.
- Loosen the camber adjusting cam nut of lower suspension arm No.2.
- Turn the camber adjusting cam of lower suspension arm No.2 and adjust camber.
