MEASURE VEHICLE HEIGHT

Note

Before inspecting the wheel alignment, adjust the vehicle height to the specified value.
Be sure to perform measurement on a level surface.
If it is necessary to go under the vehicle for measurement, confirm that the parking brake is applied and the vehicle is secured with chocks.
Inspect while the vehicle is unloaded.
The standard value shown here is a value that is used for adjusting the wheel alignment and does not indicate the height of an actual vehicle.

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

Measure the vehicle height.

Measurement points:

A: Ground clearance of front wheel center

B: Ground clearance of lower No. 2 suspension arm bushing set bolt center

C: Ground clearance of rear wheel center

D: Ground clearance of strut rod set bolt center

INSPECT CAMBER

Note

Inspect while the vehicle is unloaded.

Install a camber-caster-kingpin gauge.

Tech Tips

Camber is not adjustable. If the measurement is not within the specified range, inspect the suspension parts for damage and/or wear, and replace them if necessary.

INSPECT TOE-IN

Note

Inspect while the vehicle is unloaded.

Bounce the vehicle up and down at the corners to stabilize the suspension.
Release the parking brake and move the shift lever to N.
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).

*b	Dimension B
	Front of the Vehicle

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

Tech Tips

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

Measure the distance between the tread center marks on the front of the rear wheels (dimension A).

Toe-in (Unloaded Vehicle)

Specified Condition
C + D: 0°13' +/- 0°10' (0.21° +/- 0.17°)
B - A: 2.5 +/- 2.0 mm (0.0984 +/- 0.0787 in.)

Tech Tips

Measure "B - A" only when "C + D" cannot be measured.

If the toe-in is not within the specified range, adjust it at the rear No. 2 suspension arms.

ADJUST TOE-IN
1. Measure the lengths of the right and left rear No. 2 suspension arms.
  
  Standard difference
  
  1.5 mm (0.0591 in.) or less
2. Loosen the 2 lock nuts.
3. If the length difference between the left and right rear No. 2 suspension arm assemblies is not within the specified range, adjust it by following the procedures below.
  1. If the toe-in measurement is greater than the specified range (too much toe-out), extend the shorter rear No. 2 suspension arm by rotating the adjusting tube so that the length difference is within the specified range.
  2. If the toe-in measurement is less than the specified range (too much toe-in), shorten the longer rear No. 2 suspension arm by rotating the adjusting tube so that the length difference is within the specified range.
  3. Measure the toe-in.
4. Turn the right and left adjusting tubes by an equal amount to adjust toe-in.
  Tech Tips
  - Try to adjust the toe-in to the center of the specified range.
  - One turn of each adjusting tube will adjust the toe-in by approximately 11.3 mm (0.445 in.).
5. Tighten the lock nuts while securing the adjusting tube in the order indicated below:
  1. Tighten the outside lock nut.
  2. Tighten the inside lock nut.
  3. Retighten the outside lock nut.
