MEASURE VEHICLE HEIGHT

Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002

NOTE:

Before inspecting the wheel alignment, adjust the vehicle height to the specified value.
Be sure to perform the measurement on a level surface.
If it is necessary to go under the vehicle for measurement, make sure that the parking brake is applied and the vehicle is secured with chocks.

Bounce the vehicle up and down at the corners several times to stabilize the suspension.

Measure the vehicle height.

Measuring points

Ground clearance of center of front lower No. 1 suspension arm bushing set bolt

Ground clearance of center of rear No. 2 suspension arm bushing set bolt

Ground clearance of center of front wheel

Ground clearance of center of rear wheel

NOTE:

The standard value shown here is a value that is used for adjusting the wheel alignment and does not indicate the height of an actual vehicle.

Standard Vehicle Height (Unloaded Vehicle)

Tire Size	Front C - A	Rear D - B
225/65R17	111 mm (4.37 in.)	73 mm (2.87 in.)
225/60R18	116 mm (4.57 in.)	78 mm (3.07 in.)

INSPECT CAMBER, CASTER AND STEERING AXIS INCLINATION

Install a camber-caster-kingpin gauge or place the front wheels on the center of a wheel alignment tester.

ADJUST CAMBER

NOTE:

Inspect toe-in after the camber has been adjusted.

Remove the front wheel.
Refer to REMOVAL [10/2014 - ]

Remove the 2 nuts on the lower side of the front shock absorber.

NOTE:

Keep the bolts inserted.

Remove the top and bottom bolts one at a time and confirm that the steering knuckle can move freely in the front shock absorber.
NOTE:
Do not apply lubricants to the steering knuckle and shock absorber contact surfaces.

HINT:
- Reinstall each bolt after removing it and confirming steering knuckle movement.
- If the steering knuckle does not move freely in the front shock absorber, clean the installation surfaces of the front shock absorber and the steering knuckle.
Temporarily install the 2 nuts (Step A).

Fully push or pull the front axle hub in the direction of the required adjustment (Step B).

*a	Negative Side
*b	Positive Side

Tighten the nuts.

Torque: 240 N*m (2447 kgf*cm, 177 ft.*lbf)

NOTE:

Prevent the bolts from rotating when tightening the nuts.

Install the front wheel.
Refer to INSTALLATION [10/2014 - ]

Check the camber.

Standard Camber Inclination (Unloaded Vehicle)

Camber Inclination	Right-left Difference
-0°15' +/-45' (-0.25° +/-0.75°)	30' (0.50°) or less

HINT:

Perform adjustments so that the value is as close as possible to the median of the specified range.

Check the camber.

If the measured value is not within the specification, calculate the required adjustment amount using the formula below.

Camber adjustment amount = center value of the specified range - measured value.

Check the combination of installed bolts. Select appropriate bolts from the table below to adjust the camber to the specified values.

HINT:

Try to adjust the camber to the center of the specified range.

Move Axle toward (+) in Step (B)	Move Axle toward (-) in Step (B)
Refer to table (1) (When moving the axle toward the positive side)	Refer to table (2) (When moving the axle toward the negative side)

NOTE:

Replace the nut with a new one when replacing a bolt.

*A	Table (1) (To move the axle hub toward the positive side)	*B	Selected Bolt Combination
*a	Installed Bolt	*b	Adjusting Value
*c	Standard Bolt	*d	90105-17009
*e	90105-17010	*f	90105-17011

If the camber was out of adjustment in the previous step, perform the adjust camber steps mentioned above. In step A, replace the existing bolts with the selected bolts.
HINT:

Replace one bolt at a time when replacing both bolts.

INSPECT TOE-IN

Bounce the vehicle up and down at the corners to stabilize the suspension and inspect toe-in.
