Front and Rear Suspension
Wheel Alignment (cont'd)
Front Camber Adjustment
The front camber can be adjusted by exchanging one or
both of the damper pinch bolts with a smaller diameter
adjusting bolt, P/N 90120-S0X-A00. The difference
between the adjusting bolt diameter and the pinch bolt
hole diameter allows for a small range of adjustment.
Damper Pinch Bolt:
1. Measure the camber angle.
Camber angle: 0° 00' 1°
Maximum difference between the right and left
side: 1° 00'
2. If the measurement is outside the specification, go
to step 3, and adjust the camber angle.
3. Raise the front of the vehicle, and support it with
safety stands in the proper locations
(see page 1-15). Remove the front wheels.
4. Loosen the flange nuts (A), and adjust the camber
by moving the bottom of the damper within the
range of the damper pinch bolt free play. Tighten
the flange nuts to the specified torque.
5. Reinstall the front wheels. Lower the front of the
vehicle to the ground, and bounce the front of the
vehicle several times to stabilize the suspension.

6. Measure the camber angle.
• If the measurement is within specification,
measure the toe-in.
• If the measurement is not within specification, go
to step 7.
7. Raise the front of the vehicle, and support it with
safety stands in the proper locations
(see page 1-15). Remove the front wheels.
8. Replace the damper pinch bolts with the adjusting
bolts (A), and adjust the camber angle.
NOTE: The camber angle can be adjusted up to
30' (center of tolerance) by replacing one damper
pinch bolt with the adjusting bolt. The camber
angle can be adjusted up to 1° 00' by replacing both
damper pinch bolts with the adjusting bolts.

9. Tighten the flange nuts to the specified torque
values.
10. Install the front wheels, and torque the wheel nuts
to 108 N·m (11.0 kgf·m, 79.6 lbf·ft).
11. Lower the vehicle to the ground, and bounce the
front of the vehicle several times to stabilize the
suspension.
12. Measure the camber angle. If the camber angle is
not within specification, repeat steps 8 through 12
to readjust the camber angle. If the camber
measurement is correct, measure toe-in, and adjust
it if necessary.
