1: Engine coolant and engine oil are at specified level. Spare tire, jack and tools are in designated position.
*2: Difference between left and right must not exceed 1 °30'.
Maximum Steering Angle Adjustment 1. Loosen the tie-rod end locknuts.
2. Remove the steering gear boot clamp.
3. Turn the tie rods to equalize the length L.
Maximum left/right difference3 mm {0.12 in}
4. Turn the tie rods equally to provide the correct maximum steering angle.
5. Tighten the tie-rod end locknuts.
Tightening torque68.6—98.0 N·m {7.00—9.99 kgf·m, 50.6—72.2 ft·lbf}
6. Verify that the boot is not twisted, and install the boot clamp.
7. Adjust the toe-in after adjusting the steering angle.

2. Make a hole through the sealant, avoiding pins,
from the inside of the vehicle using an awl.
3. Pass the SST (piano wire) through the hole.
Warning
•Using a SST (piano wire) with bare hands
can cause injury. Always wear gloves
when using a SST (piano wire).
4. Wind each end of the SST (piano wire) around a
bar.
Note
•Use a long sawing action to spread the work
over the whole length of the SST (piano
wire) to prevent it from breaking.
5. Working with another person, saw through the
sealant around the edge of the glass.
6. Remove the side window glass.

Caution
•To prevent the sealant from cracking or the glass from being pushed out by air pressure if a door
is closed, open all of the windows and leave them open until the sealant has hardened.
1. Cut away the old sealant using a razor so that 1—2 mm {0.04—0.07 in} thickness of sealant remains around
the circumference of the frame.
Warning
•Using a razor with bare hands can cause injury. Always wear gloves when using a razor.
2. If the sealant has come off completely in any one place, apply some primer after degreasing, and allow it
approximately 30 minutes to dry. Then put on new sealant to create a 2 mm {0.08 in} layer.
3. Clean and degrease an approximately 50.0 mm {1.97 in} wide strip around the circumference of the glass
and the bonding area on the body.
