Rear Suspension
Rear End Alignment ConstructionAmong factors for rear wheel alignment, only toe setting can be adjusted. Camber and caster can't be adjusted. Therefore, should camber or caster be out of specification due to the damage caused by hazardous road conditions or collision, whether the damage is in body or in suspension should be determined and damaged body should be repaired or damaged suspension should be replaced.
Toe Setting
Amount of toe can be obtained by subtracting "A" from "B" as shown in the figure and therefore is given in mm (inch).
Measure toe with toe-in gauge (1).
Toe should be within the following specification.
When checked with side slip tester, side slip should satisfy the following specification. If toe-in or side slip is out of corresponding specification, adjust toe properly.
Toe-in specification 2 ± 2 mm (0.079 ± 0.079 inch)
Side slip specification 2 ± 3 mm/m (0.079 ± 0.118 inch/3.3 ft.
