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.
FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT
MEASURE VEHICLE HEIGHT
Note
Before inspecting the wheel alignment, check the vehicle height.
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.

If the caster and steering axis inclination are not within the specified values after the camber has been correctly adjusted, recheck the suspension parts for damage and wear.
Note
Inspect while the vehicle is unloaded.
The tolerance for the difference between the left and right wheels is 30' (0.5°) or less for both the camber and caster.
Remove the camber-caster-kingpin gauge.
Install the wheel cap.

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