2. CAMBER AND CASTER

Inspection
1) Place front wheel on turning radius gauge. Make sure
ground contacting surfaces of front and rear wheels are set
at the same height.
2) Set ST into the center of the wheel, and then install the
wheel alignment gauge.
ST 927380000 ADAPTER
NOTE:
Refer to the“SPECIFICATIONS AND SERVICE DATA”for
the camber and caster values.

Front camber adjustment
1) Loosen two self-locking nuts located at lower front por-
tion of strut.
CAUTION:

When adjusting bolt needs to be loosened or
tightened, hold its head with a wrench and turn self-
locking nut.

Discard loosened self-locking nut and replace with a
new one.
B4M0189A
2) Turn camber adjusting bolt so that camber is set at the
specification.
NOTE:
Moving the adjusting bolt by one scale graduation changes
camber by approximately 0°10′.

NOTE:

When left and right wheels are adjusted for toe-in at the
same time, moving one scale graduation changes toe-in by
approximately 4 mm (0.16 in).

Turn adjusting wheel and adjusting bolt equally in oppo-
site directions so that same scale graduations are posi-
tioned directly above center of the adjusting bolt.
3) Tighten self-locking nut.
Tightening torque:
137±20 N⋅m (14±2 kg-m, 101±14 ft-lb)

5. REAR WHEEL TOE-IN (AWD MODEL)

Inspection
1) Using a toe-in gauge, measure rear wheel toe-in.
Toe-in: 0±3 mm (0±0.12 in)
2) Mark rear sides of left and right tires at height corre-
sponding to center of spindles and measure distance“B”
between marks.
3) Move vehicle forward so that marks line up with front
sides at height corresponding to center of spindles.
4) Measure distance“A”between left and right marks.
Toe-in can then be obtained by the following equation:
BA = Toe-in

Adjustment
1) Loosen self-locking nut on inner side of rear lateral link.
CAUTION:

When loosening or tightening adjusting bolt, hold
bolt head and turn self-locking nut.

Discard loosened self-locking nut and replace with a
new one.
2) Turn adjusting bolt head until toe-in is at the specifica-
tion.

6. THRUST ANGLE

Inspection
1) Position vehicle on a level surface.
2) Move vehicle 3 to 4 meters directly forward.
3) Determine locus of both front and rear axles.
4) Measure distance“L”between center line of loci of the
axles.

Thrust angle is less than 20’when“L”is equal to or less
than 15 mm (0.59 in).

Adjustment
Make thrust angle adjustments by turning toe-in adjusting
bolts of rear suspension equally in the same direction.
NOTE:
On FWD models, turn adjusting wheels one by one, by the
some amount in the opposite direction of the adjusting
bolts.

When one rear wheel is adjusted in a toe-in direction,
adjust the other rear wheel equally in toe-out direction, in
order to make thrust angle adjustment.
When left and right adjusting bolts are turned incremen-
tally by one graduation in the same direction, the thrust
angle of the AWD model will change approximately 10’[“L”
is almost equal to 7.5 mm (0.295 in)] and the thrust angle
of the FWD model will change approximately 12’[“L”is
almost equal to 9 mm (0.35 in)].
Thrust angle:
0°±20′
B4M0193A
NOTE:
Thrust angle refers to a mean value of left and right rear
wheel toe angles in relation to vehicle body center line.
Vehicle is driven straight in the thrust angle direction while
swinging in the oblique direction depending on the degree
of the mean thrust angle.
B4M0194A
Thrust angle: r
r=αβ2
α: Right rear wheel toe angle
β: Left rear wheel toe angle
NOTE:
Here, use only positive toe-in values from each wheel to
substitute forαandβin the equation.

1) Feed the specified fluid with its level being about 5 cm
(2.0 in) lower than the mouth of tank.
2) Continue to turn steering wheel slowly from lock to lock
until bubbles stop appearing in the tank while keeping the
fluid at that level.
3) In case air is absorbed to deliver bubbles into piping
because the fluid level is lower, leave it about half an hour
and then do the step 2) all over again.
4) Start, and idle the engine.
5) Continue to turn steering wheel slowly from lock to lock
again until bubbles stop appearing in the tank while keep-
ing the fluid at that level.
It is normal that bubbles stop appearing after three times
turning of steering wheel.
6) In case bubbles do not stop appearing in the tank, leave
it about half an hour and then do the step 5) all over again.
7) Stop the engine, and take out safety stands after jack-
ing up vehicle again.
Then lower the vehicle, and idle the engine.
8) Continue to turn steering wheel from lock to lock until
bubbles stop appearing and change of the fluid level is
within 3 mm (0.12 in).
9) In case the following happens, leave it about half an
hour and then do step 8) again.
(1) The fluid level changes over 3 mm (0.12 in).
(2) Bubbles remain on the upper surface of the fluid.
(3) Grinding noise is generated from oil pump.

4) When tester indicates 12 volts when its probe reaches
point“A”, a broken circuit occurs between point“A”and the
negative terminal. Slowly move tester probe toward the
negative terminal while contacting it on heat wire to locate
point where tester indication changes abruptly (0 volts).
This is the point where a broken circuit occurs.
When tester indicates 0 volts when its probe reaches point
“A”, a broken circuit occurs between point“A”and the posi-

changes abruptly (12 volts) while slowly moving tester
probe toward the positive terminal.

1) Clean broken wire and its surrounding area.
2) Cut off slit on (used) thin film by 0.5 mm (0.020 in) width
and 10 mm (0.39 in) length.
3) Place the slit on glass along the broken wire, and
deposit conductive silver composition (DUPONT No. 4817)
on the broken portion.
4) Dry out the deposited portion.
5) Inspect the repaired wire for continuity.
