Maximum Steering Angle Adjustment
1. Loosen the tie-rod end locknuts.
2. Remove the steering gear boot clamp.
3. Turn the tie rods to equalize the length L.
Maximum left/right difference
3 mm {0.12 in}
4. Turn the tie rods equally to provide the correct
maximum steering angle.
5. Tighten the tie-rod end locknuts.
Tightening torque
68.698.0 N·m
{7.009.99 kgf·m, 50.672.2 ft·lbf}
6. Verify that the boot is not twisted, and install the boot clamp.
7. Adjust the toe-in after adjusting the steering angle.
Total Toe-in Adjustment
1. Center the steering wheel and confirm that the vehicle wheels/tires are pointing straight.
2. Loosen the left and right tie-rod end locknuts and turn the tie-rods equally. Both tie rods are right threaded, so
turning the right tie-rod toward the front of the vehicle and the left toward the rear increases toe-in.
Note
Turning both tie-rods one complete turn changes toe-in by about 6 mm {0.24 in} (0°
°°
°36').
3. Tighten the tie-rod end locknuts to the specified torque.
Tightening torque
68.698.0 N·m {7.009.99 kgf·m, 50.672.2 ft·lbf}
4. Verify that the boot is not twisted, and install the boot clamp.
