Drift/Pull

Wheel Alignment Angles

Front toe is adjusted through the use of adjustable tie-rod ends. Front caster is adjusted by installing new upper control arms with offset bushings. The upper arms can adjust caster angles ± 0.4 degrees and have separate part numbers. Front camber is not adjustable on the vehicle. Rear toe is adjusted through the use of adjustable toe links. Rear caster is not adjustable on the vehicle. Rear camber is adjusted through the use of a cam bolt that attaches the rear lower control arm to the rear subframe.

Drift/Pull

Pull is a tugging sensation, felt by the hands on the steering wheel, that must be overcome to keep the vehicle going straight.

Drift describes what a vehicle with this condition does with hands off the steering wheel.

- A vehicle-related drift/pull, on a flat road, will cause a consistent deviation from the straight-ahead path and require constant steering input in the opposite direction to counteract the effect.
- Drift/pull may be induced by conditions external to the vehicle (for example, wind, road crown).
- A drift or pull condition may exist even if the front alignment is within specifications. To aid in correcting this condition, there are 4 additional upper control arms available with off-set bushings (2 for LH, 2 for RH). These upper control arms will allow the caster to be adjusted ±0.4 degrees. Refer to Caster Adjustment - Front Caster Adjustment - Front.
