  Note

  • Unloaded vehicle: Fuel tank is full. Engine coolant and engine oil are at specified level. Jack and tools are in designated position.
  • Difference between the left and right dimension for camber and caster is within 1°.

## Steering Angle Adjustment

1. Loosen the locknut of the tie-rod end.

2. Remove the rack boot clamp.

3. Rotate the tie rod and adjust the steering angle.

  Standard steering angle
  Standard suspension

  Inner: 38°41'±3°
  Outer: 33°15'±3°

  Sport suspension

  Inner: 38°36'±3°
  Outer: 33°07'±3°

  Note

  • Rotate and adjust the tie rod. The difference between right and left dimension L shown in the figure should be within the specification.

  Standard
  3 mm {0.12 in} or less

4. Tighten the locknut of the tie-rod end.

  Tightening torque
  37.0-49.0 N·m {3.78-4.99 kgf·m, 27.3-36.1 ft·lbf}

5. Correct the rack boot deformation.

6. Install and fix the rack boot clamp.

7. After adjusting the steering angle, always inspect and adjust the toe angle. (See Total Toe-in Adjustment.)

## Camber Adjustment

  Caution

  • Adjust the camber before adjusting the caster.

1. Loosen the fixing nut of the adjusting cam bolt (front lower arm front side).

2. Rotate the adjusting cam bolt in either direction to adjust the camber.

  Note

  • Refer to the following figure for the adjusting angle per one graduation of the toe-in gauge.

3. Tighten the nut.

  Tightening torque
  117.7-137.3 N·m {12.1-14.0 kgf·m, 86.9-101.2 ft·lbf}

4. Adjust the toe-in.

## Caster Adjustment

  Caution

  • Adjust the caster after adjusting the camber.

1. Loosen the installation nut of the adjusting cam bolt (front lower arm rear side).

2. Rotate the adjusting cam bolt in either direction to adjust caster.

  Note

  • Refer to the following table for the adjusting amount per one graduation.

3. Tighten the nut.

  Tightening torque
  117.7-137.3 N·m {12.1-14.0 kgf·m, 86.9-101.2 ft·lbf}

4. Adjust the camber and total toe-in.

## Total Toe-in Adjustment

1. Loosen the locknut of the tie-rod end.

2. Remove the rack boot clamp.

3. Adjust the total toe-in by rotating each tie rod (left and right) in the opposite directions by the same amount respectively.

  Total Toe-in Standard
  2±4 mm {0.08±0.15 in} (0°11'±21')

  Note

  • Toe angle changes by approx. 5 mm {0.2 in} per one rotation of the tie rod for one wheel.
  • Each tie rod has a left-hand thread. When increasing the toe-in angle, rotate the right tie rod toward the rear of the vehicle, and rotate the left tie rod toward the front of the vehicle by the same amount.

4. Tighten the locknut of the tie-rod end.

  Tightening torque
  37.0-49.0 N·m {3.78-4.99 kgf·m, 27.3-36.1 ft·lbf}

5. Verify that the rack boot does not have any twisting, and install the rack boot clamp.
