REAR WHEEL ALIGNMENT INSPECTION

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note

For vehicles equipped with VSC, if wheel alignment has been adjusted, and if suspension or underbody components have been removed/installed or replaced, be sure to perform the following initialization procedure in order for the system to function normally:

Perform zero point calibration of the yaw rate and acceleration sensor and test mode inspection.

PROCEDURE


  1. INSPECT TIRES

  3. INSPECT CAMBER


    1. Install the camber-caster-kingpin gauge and position the rear wheel on the alignment tester.

    2. Inspect the camber.

      Note

      The tolerance for the difference between the left and right wheels is 30' (0.5°) or less for both cambers. If the camber is not within the specified range, inspect the suspension parts and replace them if necessary.

  4. INSPECT TOE-IN

    If the toe-in is not within the specified range, inspect the suspension parts and replace them if necessary.


    1. Bounce the vehicle up and down at the corners to stabilize the suspension.

    2. Release the parking brake and move the shift lever to N.

    3. Push the vehicle straight ahead approximately 5 m (16.4 ft.). (Step A)

      Put tread center marks on the rearmost points of the rear wheels and measure the distance between the marks (Dimension B).

    5. Slowly push the vehicle straight ahead to cause the rear wheels to rotate 180°. Use the rear tire valve as a reference point.

      Note

      Do not allow the wheels to rotate more than 180°. If the wheels rotate more than 180°, perform the procedure from (Step A) again.
