Precautions
PRECAUTIONSNBSU0001IWhen installing rubber parts, final tightening must be car-
ried out under unladen condition* with tires on ground.
*Fuel, radiator coolant and engine oil full. Spare tire, jack,
hand tools and mats in designated positions.
IUse flare nut wrench when removing and installing brake
tubes.
IAfter installing removed suspension parts, check wheel
alignment and adjust if necessary.
IAlways torque brake lines when installing.

FRONT SUSPENSION PARTSNBSU0005Check front axle and front suspension parts for excessive play,
cracks, wear and other damage.
1. Shake each front wheel to check for excessive play.
2. Retighten all axle and suspensions nuts and bolts to the speci-
fied torque.
Tightening torque:
Refer to ªComponentsº, SU-8.
SFA392B
3. Check strut (shock absorber) for oil leakage and other dam-
age.
4. Check suspension ball joint for grease leakage and ball joint
dust cover for cracks and other damage.
If ball joint dust cover is cracked or damaged, replace ball joint
assembly.
5. Check suspension ball joint end play.
a. Jack up front of vehicle and set the stands.
b. Clamp dial indicator onto transverse link and place indicator tip
on lower edge of brake caliper.
c. Make sure front wheels are straight and brake pedal is
depressed.
SFA745B
d. Place a pry bar between transverse link and knuckle.
e. While raising and releasing pry bar, observe maximum dial
indicator value.
Vertical end play:
0mm(0in)
If ball joint vertical end play exists, remove lower ball joint
assembly and recheck the ball joint. Refer to ªTranverse Link
and Lower Ball Jointº, SU-11.
SFA746B
6. Check spring height from top of wheelarch to ground using the
following procedure.
a. Park vehicle on a level surface with vehicle unladen*.
*: Fuel, radiator coolant and engine oil full. Spare tire, jack,
hand tools and mats in designated positions.
b. Check tires for proper inflation and wear (tread wear indicator
must not be showing).
c. Bounce vehicle up and down several times and measure
dimensions Hf and Hr. Refer to SDS, SU-14.
Spring height is not adjustable. If out of specification, check for
worn springs and suspension parts.

FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENTNBSU0006Before checking front wheel alignment, be sure to make a prelimi-
nary inspection (Unladen*).
*: Fuel, radiator coolant and engine oil full. Spare tire, jack, hand
tools and mats in designated positions.
Preliminary InspectionNBSU0006S011. Check tires for wear and improper inflation.
2. Check wheels for deformation, cracks and other damage.
If deformed, remove wheel and check wheel runout.
NOTE:
Measure both the inner and outer sides for the radial runout and
lateral runout, and confirm the figures are within the standards.
Wheel runout (Dial indicator value):
Refer to SDS.
3. Check front wheel bearings for looseness.
4. Check front suspension for looseness.
5. Check steering linkage for looseness.
6. Check that front shock absorbers work properly.
7. Check vehicle posture (Unladen).
SFA894
Camber, Caster and Kingpin InclinationNBSU0006S02Camber, caster and kingpin inclination are preset at factory
and cannot be adjusted.
1. Measure camber, caster and kingpin inclination of both right
and left wheels with a suitable alignment gauge.
Camber, Caster and Kingpin inclination:
Refer to SDS, SU-13.
2. If camber, caster or kingpin inclination is not within
specification, inspect front suspension parts. Replace dam-
aged or worn out parts.
