Toe-In Adjustment:
PROCEDURE
1. Determine toe-in from the alignment equipment.
2. Change length of both tie rod sleeves to effect a toe change.
3. Toe-in can be increased or decreased by changing the length of the tie rod ends. A threaded sleeve is provided for this purpose.
When the tie rod ends are mounted ahead of the steering knuckle they must be decreased in length in order to increase toe-in. When the tie rod ends are mounted behind the steering knuckle they must be lengthened in order to increase toe-in.
