1968 Chevrolet Corvette 2D Convertible, 5.3L Eng, Automatic Trans, Trans Mfr CD PowerglideSECTION Toe-In
NOTE:
If drive-on equipment is used, reverse car and back into position. Toe-in (overall) will be read as toe-out (readings taken from rear of tires rather than front).
To adjust, add or remove shims equally from each side of front edge of transmission case, with engine rear support loosened.
CAUTION:
Shims must be added or removed equally, from each side. DO NOT attempt to adjust one wheel at a time.
A shim added to each side will increase toe-in. Removal of shim from each side will decrease toe-in.
NOTE:
Because of manufacturing tolerance and parts stack-up, it is possible to have toe-out on one wheel and toe-in on opposite wheel. In this case, adjust the wheel with toe-out as close as possible to specifications, but not letting opposite wheel go out of specifications. If, for example, one wheel toes-out by 1/4", then opposite wheel must toe-in enough to give overall specified toe-in.
