  4. ADJUST CAMBER AND CASTER 

    HINT: 

    After the camber has been adjusted, inspect the toe-in.

    1. Loosen the toe adjusting cam bolt and camber adjusting cam nut.
    2. Turn the toe adjusting cam and camber adjusting cam in both directions, and adjust the camber and caster to the center value.

      HINT: 

      The camber and caster should be as close as possible to the center value.
