 PRECAUTIONS

PRECAUTIONS PFP:00001

Cautions AES000EA

● When installing rubber bushings, final tightening must be carried out under unladen condition with tires on
level ground. Oil will shorten the life of rubber bushings. Be sure to wipe off any spilled oil.
● Unladen condition means that fuel, coolant and lubricant are full. Spare tire, jack, hand tools and mats in
designated positions.
● After servicing suspension parts, be sure to check wheel alignment.
● Caulking nuts are not reusable. Always use new ones when installing. Since new caulking nuts are pre-
oiled, tighten as they are.

A
On-Vehicle Inspection and Service AES000EF

Check that the mounting conditions (looseness, back lash) of each component and component status (wear,
damage) are normal. B
INSPECTION OF BALL JOINT END PLAY
● Measure axial end play by installing and moving up/down with
an iron pry bar or something similar between suspension arm C
and axle.
Standard value
D
Axial end play : 0 mm (0 in)
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage ball joint boot. RSU

DESCRIPTION
● Measure wheel alignment under unladen conditions. “Unladen conditions” means that fuel, coolant, and
lubricant are full. Spare tire, jack, hand tools and mats in designated positions. H

PRELIMINARY INSPECTION
1. Check tires for improper air pressure and wear.
I
2. Check road wheels for runout.
3. Check wheel bearing axial end play.
4. Check ball joint axial end play of suspension arm. J

SEIA0227E

TOE-IN
Measure toe-in using following procedure. If out of specification, inspect and replace any damaged or worn
rear suspension parts.
WARNING:
● Always perform following procedure on a flat surface.
● Make sure that no person is in front of vehicle before push-
ing it.
1. Bounce rear of vehicle up and down to stabilize the posture.
2. Push vehicle straight ahead about 5 m (16 ft).
3. Put a mark on base line of the tread (rear side) of both tires at
the same height of hub center. These are measuring point.
4. Measure distance “A” (rear side).

SFA614B

5. Push vehicle slowly ahead to rotate the wheels 180 degrees (1/2
turn).
If wheels have rotated more than 180 degrees (1/2 turn), try the
above procedure again from the beginning. Never push vehicle
backward.
6. Measure distance “B” (front side).
Standard value
Total toe-in : Refer to RSU-18, "SERVICE DATA" .
