ADJUSTING REAR WHEEL TOE–IN
The rear wheels should not toe–in or toe–out when they
are adjusted correctly. To check the rear wheel toe–in,
measure the center–to–center distance at wheel hub
height, in front and in back of the rear tires. If the wheels
toe–in or toe–out, an adjustment is required.
1.
Rotate the steering wheel so rear wheels and
steering plate are straight ahead.
2.
Loosen the jam nuts on both tie rods Adjust both tie
rods until center–to–center distance at front and back of
rear wheels is the same (Fig. 44).
3.
When rear wheels are adjusted correctly, tighten
jam nuts against tie rods.
