Adjustment
1) Loosen right and left tie-rod end lock nuts (1) first.
2) Rotate right and left tie-rods (2) by the same amount
to align toe to specification. In this adjustment, the
lengths “A” of both right and left tie-rod should be
equal.
NOTE
Before rotating tie-rods (2), apply grease
between tie-rods and rack boots so that
boots won’t be twisted.
3) After adjustment, tighten lock nuts (1) to specified
torque.

NOTE
If tie-rod lengths were changed to adjust
steering angle, reinspect toe-in.
