PROCEDURE

Hide 2.MEASURE VEHICLE HEIGHT

NOTICE:
·

Before inspecting the wheel alignment, first inspect the vehicle height.

·

Be sure to perform measurement on a level surface.

·

If it is necessary to go under the vehicle for measurement, confirm that the parking brake is applied and the vehicle is secured with chocks.

·

Inspect while the vehicle is unloaded.

·

The standard value shown here is a value that is used for performing a wheel alignment and does not indicate the height of an actual vehicle.

Remove the 2 nuts on the lower side of the front shock absorber assembly.

NOTICE:

Keep the bolts inserted.



c.

Remove the top and bottom bolts one at a time and confirm that the steering knuckle can move freely in the front shock absorber assembly.

HINT:
·

Reinstall each bolt after removing it and confirming steering knuckle movement.

·

If the steering knuckle does not move freely in the front shock absorber assembly, clean the contact surfaces of the front shock absorber assembly and the steering knuckle.

If the measured value is not within the specification, calculate the required adjustment amount using the formula below.

Camber adjustment amount = center of the specified range - measured value

Check the combination of the installed bolts. Select appropriate bolts from the tables below to adjust the camber to the specified values.

HINT:

Try to adjust the camber to the center of the specified values.


To move the axle hub toward (+) in step B To move the axle hub toward (-) in step B
Refer to table (1) (To move the axle hub toward the positive side) Refer to table (2) (To move the axle hub toward the negative side)

The vehicle body and suspension may be damaged if the camber cannot be correctly adjusted according to the table above.

NOTICE:

Replace the nut with a new one when replacing the bolt.
