Toe Adjustment; Suspension (Rzr); Spring Preload Adjustment - Polaris 2010 Ranger RZR 800 EFI Manual

Toe Adjustment

If toe alignment is incorrect, measure the distance between
vehicle center and each wheel. This will tell you which tie rod
needs adjusting.
NOTE: Be sure steering wheel is straight ahead
before determining
adjustment.
CAUTION
During tie rod adjustment, it is very important that
the following precautions be taken when
tightening tie rod end jam nuts.
If the rod end is positioned incorrectly it will not
pivot, and may break.
To adjust toe alignment:
• Hold tie rod end to keep it from rotating.
• Loosen jam nuts at both ends of the tie rod.
• Shorten or lengthen the tie rod until alignment is as
required to achieve the proper toe setting as specified in
Toe Alignment Inspection.
• IMPORTANT: When tightening the tie rod end jam
nuts, the rod ends must be held parallel to prevent rod
end damage and premature wear. Damage may not be
immediately apparent if done incorrectly.
• After alignment is complete, torque jam nuts to
specification.

vehicle, which could result in an accident and
serious injury or death. Always adjust both the left
and right spring preloads equally.
