Suspension System: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Mercury Mountaineer and 2004 Ford Explorer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The front caster and camber are adjusted by means of removing set shims at the upper control arm-to-frame mounting bolts and installing washers (W-705040-S426) to allow the arm to be adjusted in the frame slots. A caster split adjustment can be made by turning an adjustment bolt located on the RH lower arm rearward frame mountings. Front toe is adjusted by the use of the front wheel spindle tie-rod. The rear camber is adjusted by removing the set shim from the rearward lower control arm to frame mounting bolt and installing a washer (W-705040-S426) to allow the arm to be adjusted in the frame slot. The rear toe is adjusted by the use of the rear toe link.
