Toe-in Adjustment
1. On a level surface, roll the vehicle forward, then stop. Make sure the front wheels are pointed straight
ahead. Do not turn the steering wheel again during this procedure.
2. On each front tire, mark (as closely as possible) the center of the tread face that is oriented toward the
rear of the vehicle. The marks should be at the same height as the center of each hub.
3. Measure the distance between the marks on the rear-facing surfaces of the tires, and then roll the vehicle
forward one and one-half wheel revolutions until the marks appear on the forward facing surfaces of the
tires at the same height as the center of the hub.
4. Measure the distance between the marks on the forward-facing surfaces of the tires (Figure 7-25,
Page 7-13). See following NOTE.
NOTE: The front measurement must be less than the rear measurement.
5. Subtract the measurement on the front of the tires from the measurement on the rear of the tires. The dif-
ference is the toe-in. Proper toe-in is 11/16-inch ± 3/8 of an inch (18 mm ± 10 mm).
6. If adjustment is necessary:
6.1. Remove the two cotter pins (18) (Figure 7-20, Page 7-11).
6.2. Remove the lock nuts (24).
6.3. Rotate both of the ball joints an equal amount. To increase the toe-in, rotate both of the ball joints
counterclockwise. To decrease the toe-in, rotate both of the ball joints clockwise. Maintain an equal
distance from the ball joint to the end of the threads on each drag link (Figure 7-27, Page 7-13).
6.4. Tighten the lock nuts (24) to 18 ft-lb (24.4 N·m) (Figure 7-20, Page 7-11).
