| ITEM | DESCRIPTION |
|---|---|
| 1 | Link - Lower control arm wheel knuckle |
| 2 | Tie-rod |
| 3 | Eccentric bolt |
The tie-rod has a bush pressed into a machined bore on the inner end. The bush is secured with an eccentric bolt, a washer and a nut. The eccentric bolt allows for the adjustment of the rear toe. The rotation of the bolt moves the eccentric head within a recessed slot in the bracket, allowing the toe to be adjusted within the set limits.
