MODIFICATION NOTES

25.06.2013 Toe-out angle with inner wheel steered through 20°   BE40.20-P-1001-08R
31.05.2016 Track difference angle at 20 ° Impact of the inside wheel   BE40.20-P-1001-08V
INSPECT Check     
1 Check toe at front axle and adjust if necessary   AR40.20-P-0200LF 
2 Check toe-out angle IMPORTANT The steering geometry is checked by measuring the toe-out angle. This is the difference in the steer angle between the outside wheel and the inside wheel when the inside wheel is steered through 20°.
IMPORTANT If substantial deviations are found, the cause may be one of the following, assuming that the camber and caster settings are correct:
  • Toe not adjusted with the rack-and-pinion steering in the straight-ahead position, resulting in tie rods of unequal length.
  • Steering knuckle or tie rod bent.
  • On vehicles involved in an accident:

Excessive deviations in the front end (longitudinal frame member, frame cross member, wheel well and firewall, or on front axle carrier) which have a negative effect on the adjustment range for camber and caster can result in greater differences in the toe-out on turns between left and right.
