Rear Toe Adjustment

NOTE:
^ Install alignment equipment following equipment manufacturer's instructions. Measure alignment angles and record the readings.
^ Jounce front and rear bumpers three times to normalize suspension prior to measuring angles.
^ If caster angles are not within the specified range, inspect for damaged suspension and steering components and replace parts as necessary.





Adjust the following:
1. Rear toe by loosening/tightening both body-side (cam) control rod nuts and bolts.
2. Loosen right and left body-side control rod nuts.
3. Loosen the right and left body-side control rod bolts (cam bolts) by the same amount and set rear total toe to +0.3 to +0.6 degrees.
^ Tighten the left and right body-side control rod nuts to 80 Nm (59 ft. lbs.)

NOTE: Hold control rod bolt with wrench to prevent it from turning while tightening control rod nuts.
