Front Suspension PartsEES002KM
Check front suspension parts for excessive play, cracks, wear and
other damage.
lShake each front wheel to check for excessive play.
If looseness is noted, inspect wheel bearing end play, then
check ball joint end play. Refer toFSU-15, "
Inspection".
lMake sure that the cotter pin is inserted in drive shaft end (4WD
models only).
lRetighten all nuts and bolts to the specified torque.
lCheck shock absorber for oil leakage and other damage.

dust cover for cracks and other damage.
Front Wheel AlignmentEES002KN
PRELIMINARY INSPECTION
WARNING:
Always adjust the alignment with the vehicle on a flat surface.
NOTE:
If alignment is out of specification, inspect and replace any damaged or worn rear suspension parts before
making any adjustments.
1. Check and adjust the wheel alignment with the vehicle under unladen conditions. “Unladen conditions”
means that the fuel, coolant, and lubricant are full; and that the spare tire, jack, hand tools and mats are in
their designated positions.
2. Check the tires for incorrect air pressure and excessive wear.
3. Check the wheels for run out and damage. Refer toWT-3, "
Inspection".
4. Check the wheel bearing axial end play. Refer toFA X - 5 , "
WHEEL BEARING INSPECTION".
5. Check the shock absorbers for leaks or damage.
6. Check each mounting point of the suspension components for any excessive looseness or damage.
7. Check each link, arm, and the rear suspension member for any damage.
8. Check the vehicle height. Refer toFSU-21, "
Wheelarch Height (Unladen*1)". Suspension component torques : Refer toFSU-6,
"Components".SMA525A
