ADJUSTMENT
1. INSPECT TIRE
2. MEASURE VEHICLE HEIGHT

NOTICE: Before inspecting wheel alignment, adjust the vehicle height to the specified value.

Toe-in:

3. INSPECT TOE-IN
a. Inspect toe-in.

Toe-in:

HINT:
- Measure C - D only when A + B cannot be measured.
- If the toe-in is not within the specified range, inspect the suspension parts and replace them if necessary.





4. ADJUST TOE-IN (FF DRIVE TYPE)
a. Measure the lengths of the right and left No.2 lower suspension arms.
No.2 lower suspension arm length difference: 1.5 mm (0.06 inch) or less
If the left-right difference is larger than 1.5 mm (0.06 inch), adjust it by following the procedures below.





b. Loosen the 2 lock nuts.
c. Turn the right and left adjusting tubes by an equal amount to adjust toe-in.

HINT:
- Try to adjust the toe-in to the center value.
- One turn of each adjusting tube will adjust toe-in by approximately 1.1° (1°11'), 11.1 mm (0.437 inch)

d. Torque the 2 lock nuts.
Torque: 56 Nm (570 kgf-cm, 41 ft. lbs.)
5. ADJUST TOE-IN (4WD DRIVE TYPE)
a. Measure the distance between each wheel disc and corner of the toe-adjusting cam, and then confirm that left and right distances are the same.
No.2 lower suspension arm length difference: 1.0 mm (0.04 inch) or less
If the left-right difference is larger than 1.0 mm (0.04 inch), adjust it by following the procedures below.





b. Turn the adjust cams by an equal amount to adjust toe-in

HINT:
- Try to adjust the toe-in to the center value.
- The toe-in will change by the following specifications corresponding to each graduation of the cam approximately 3.3 mm (0.13 inch)

c. Tighten the nut.
Torque: 100 Nm (1,020 kgf-cm, 74 ft. lbs.)
6. INSPECT CAMBER

Coil Suspension:

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