Rear Camber and Toe
Rear Camber on this vehicle is adjustable. The rear camber on this vehicle is adjusted using the adjusting screw located in the forward and rear lateral links of the vehicles rear suspension.
CAUTION: When checking the rear alignment on this vehicle, the alignment rack must be equipped with rear skid plates.
1. For either rear wheel needing alignment, loosen the adjusting screw jam nuts on both the front and the rear lateral links.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to move the adjusting screws without properly loosening the jam nuts. Note that each adjusting screw has one right handed nut and one left-handed nut.
CAUTION: When setting rear camber and toe on the vehicle, the maximum lengths of the adjustable lateral link at the locations shown must not be exceeded. If these maximum lengths are exceeded, inadequate retention of adjustment link to the inner and outer link may result.
2. Rough-in the rear camber setting as close as possible to the preferred specification by mainly adjusting the rear lateral link adjusting screw. Some adjustment of the forward lateral link adjusting screw will also be required to get the rear camber setting to the preferred specification. Refer to Wheel Alignment Specifications.
3. Adjust the forward lateral link adjusting screw to set rear toe to the preferred specification. Refer to Wheel Alignment Specifications.
NOTE: Adjusting toe will cause a slight change in the camber setting. If during the setting of toe, camber is no longer at the preferred specification, continue to adjust camber and toe until both are at their preferred specifications.
4. While holding adjustment screws from turning, use a crow foot and torque wrench, and tighten all lateral link adjusting screw jam nuts to a torque of 92 Nm (68 ft. lbs.). This will securely hold the adjusting screws from turning.
5. Proceed to Front Caster and Camber, or Front Toe if front caster and camber are within specifications.
