106Section 3 Front Wheel AlignmentAdjustment1. Inspect tire
2. Inspect toe-in
Toe-in
If the toe-in is not as specified, adjust the tie rod (but the left and
right tie rods must be adjusted symmetrically).
3. Adjust toe-in
(1) Loose the tie rod end lock nut.
(2) Turn the left and right tie rod in the same direction for same
revolutions.
Hint: Adjust the toe-in to the specified value.
Only adjust the one-side tie rod is not allowed.
(3) Make sure the left and right tie rods are of the same length.
(The difference should be less than 0.5mm).
(4) Tighten the lock nut of tie rod.
Torque: 45~50N.m
4. Inspect wheel limited turn angle
Turn the steering wheel fully and measure the turning angle.
Wheel angle:
If the wheel angle is less than the specified value, check whether the length of the right and left tie rod
ends.Tire Pressure 220KP a
