Adjust both tie rods equally to obtain the correct toe-out. Hold
tie rod (2) with an open end wrench, loosen the jam nut (1)
and turn the adjustment shaft (3) to move the wheel in the
desired direction.
Recheck the measurement at the front and at the rear of the
front tires, if the 1/4” toe-out has been achieved tighten the
lock nut (1) on each tie rod.
BRAKES
This vehicle is equipped with four wheel hydraulic disc brakes; the parking
brake is hand operated. Check the fluid level at intervals specified in the
PERIODIC SERVICE SCHEDULE; if fluid leaks are noticed or the brake
pedal seems soft check the fluid level immediately. If the brake pedal is soft,
the brake system should be bled to remove air from the brake lines. Instruc-
tions for bleeding the brake system are included in the vehicle repair manual.
Master Cylinder
The master cylinder is located behind the driver side front wheel, mounted to
the frame. Before removing the reservoir cap, clean any dirt or debris from
around the reservoir and cap.

The hydraulic brake system must be free of air to operate properly. Air can enter the system when hydraulic parts are
disconnected for servicing or replacement, or when the fluid level in the master cylinder reservoir is very low. Air in
the system will give the brake pedal a spongy feeling upon application.
