MAINTENANCE

WHEEL TOE ALIGNMENT
If toe alignment is incorrect, repeat steps 3-5 of “Wheel
Toe Alignment Inspection”, but instead measure the
distance between each wheel and the vehicle center.
This will tell you which tie rod needs adjusting.

NOTE
Be sure steering wheel is straight ahead before
determining which tie rod needs adjustment.

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.

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”.
CAUTION

When tightening the tie rod jam nuts, 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.
