Ball Joint Inspection


NOTE: The front suspension is shown in the following procedures. The inspection of the rear suspension upper ball joint
is similar.

1. Raise and support the vehicle. REFER to: (100-02 Jacking and Lifting)
Jacking (Description and Operation), Lifting (Description and Operation).
2. Prior to carrying out any inspection of the ball joints, inspect the front wheel bearings.

Suspension System - General Information - Camber and Caster Adjustment
General Procedures
NOTES:

The camber and caster adjustment for the left-hand side is shown, the procedure for adjusting the right-hand side is
similar.


This procedure must be carried out using a 4-post ramp.


Adjustments to the camber will affect the toe settings. Therefore, the camber and toe may need to be adjusted at the
same time to achieve the correct settings.


Adjustments to the camber may affect the caster settings. Therefore, the caster will need to be checked, and adjusted as
necessary.
