Adjust Front Wheel Toe–in
Note: Adjust front wheel ride height before checking
or adjusting front wheel toe–in.
1. Adjust tire pressures to 12 psi before checking front
wheel toe–in.
2. With a 175 to 225 lb (79 to 102 kg) operator in the
driver’s seat, drive vehicle back and forth a few times on
a level surface to relax suspension.
3. Stop vehicle. With operator still in driver’s seat and
wheels pointed straight ahead, measure the front wheel
toe–in.
4. Measure distance between the front tires at axle
height at both the front and rear of the tires. To obtain an
accurate measurement at axle height, a universal align-
ment gauge (or equivalent) should be used (Fig. 8).
Front wheel toe–in should be 1/8 to 5/8 inch (3 to 16
mm).
NOTE: If the vehicle will be run with medium to heavy
loads most of the time, adjust the toe–in toward the max-
imum specification. Conversely, if light loads are carried,
adjust toe–in toward the minimum specification.
5. If the front wheel toe–in is incorrect, adjust as follows:
A. Loosen jam nuts at both ends of tie rods (Fig. 9).
B. Rotate both tie rods to move front of tire inward or
outward.
C. Tighten tie rod jam nuts when toe–in adjustment
is correct.
6. Ensure that there is full steering travel in both direc-
tions.
