(d) Check the front suspension for looseness.
(e) Check the steering linkage for looseness.
(f) Check that the front absorbers work properly by
using the standard bounce test.
ADJUST TOE.IN
Adjust toe-in with a toe-in gauge by the following pro-
cedure.
(d Check to see that both right and left tie rods measure
the same in length.
Left-right error: 1.5 mm (0.059 in.l or less
Move the vehicle forward a few meters with the front
wheels in the straight-ahead position on a level place.
Mark the center of each rear tread and measure the
distance between marks of the right and left tires.
(d) Advance the vehicle till the marks on the rear of the
tires come to the measuring heights of the gauge on
the front.
(e) Measure the distance between the marks on the front
of the tires.

INSPECTION OF BALL JOINTS
1. INSPECT BALL JOINTS FOR EXCESSIVE LOOSENESS
(d Jack up the tront of the vehicle and place a wooden
block with a height of 18O - 2OO mm (7.09 - 7.87
in.) under one front tire.
(d Lower the jack until there is about half a load on the
front coil springs. Place stands under the vehicle for
safety.
(c) Make sure the front wheels are in a straightforward
position and block them with chocks.
(d) Move the lower arm up and down and check that the
balljoint has no excessive play.
Maximum balljoint vertical play: 0 mm (0 in.l
2. INSPECT BALL JOINT DUST COVERS FOR DAMAGE
OR DETERIORATION
lf a problem is found, replace the balljoint assembly.
