6. REAR WHEEL TOE-IN
• 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
corresponding to center of spindles and measure
distance "A" between marks.
3) Move vehicle forward so that marks line up with
front sides at height corresponding to center of
spindles.
4) Measure distance "B" between left and right
marks. Toe-in can then be obtained by the follow-
ing equation:
A − − − − B = Toe-in
B
2) Turn adjusting bolt head until toe-in is at the specification.
NOTE:
When left and right wheels are adjusted for toe-in at the same time, the movement of one scale graduation
changes toe-in by approximately 3 mm (0.12 in).
Toe-in is
increased.
Toe-in is
decreased.
3) Tighten self-locking nut.
Tightening torque:
120 N·m (12.2 kgf-m, 88 ft-lb)
