Wheel Toe Adjustment
If toe alignment is incorrect, measure the distance between
vehicle center and each wheel. This will tell you which tie rod
needs adjusting.
NOTE: Be sure steering wheel is straight ahead
before determining which tie rod needs adjustment.
To adjust toe alignment:
Hold tie rod end to keep it from rotating.
Loosen jam nuts at both end of the tie rod.
Shorten or lengthen the tie rod until alignment is as
required to achieve the proper toe setting as specified in
“Wheel Toe Alignment”.
IMPORTANT: When tightening the tie rod end jam
nuts, the rod ends must be held parallel to prevent rod
end damage and premature wear. Damage may not be
immediately apparent if done incorrectly.
After alignment is complete, torque jam nuts to
specification.
CAUTION
During tie rod adjustment, it is very important that
the following precautions be taken when
tightening tie rod end jam nuts.
If the rod end is positioned incorrectly it will not
pivot, and may break.
