Rear Wheel Alignment: Adjustment

  1. INSPECT TIRE (SEE INSPECTION  ) 
  2. MEASURE VEHICLE HEIGHT (SEE  ADJUSTMENT  ) 
    NOTE: Before inspecting wheel alignment, adjust the vehicle height to the specified value.
  3. INSPECT TOE-IN 
    TOE-IN SPECIFICATION

    Toe-in (total) A + B: 0° 24' +/- 12' (0.40° +/- 0.20°)
    Toe-in (total) C - D: 4 +/-2 mm (0.16 +/- 0.08 in.)

    HINT:

    • Measure "C - D" only when "A + B" cannot be measured.
    • If toe-in is not within the specified range, inspect the suspension parts and replace them if necessary.

      No. 2 suspension arm length difference: 

      1.5 mm (0.06 in.) or less 

      If the left-right difference is larger than 1.5 mm (0.06 in.), adjust it by following the procedures below.
