Proper front wheel alignment has a big impact on handling and reduces tire wear. Before checking them, make sure that the car is loaded only with its own weight with fuel and equipment and that the air pressure in the tires is correct.
1. Put the car on a level ground, put the wheels in a straight line position, and then roll the car back 4-5 m and forward again.
2. Using a wheel alignment tool, check that the wheels have positive toe-in as specified in the documentation (0°15'-0°35' or 2.0-4.0 mm).
3. If adjustment is necessary, loosen the clamping bolts of both tie rods and turn the tie rods at equal angles until the desired installation angle is obtained.
4. The distances between the centers of the ball pins of both transverse rods must be equal. Tighten clamp bolts (see Removal and installation of transverse and longitudinal steering rods).
Checking the camber and caster angles requires special equipment and should be carried out at the service station. The camber angle of the front wheels is adjusted by eccentric bolts located on the inner ends of the lower suspension arms. The angle of the longitudinal inclination of the axis of rotation is regulated by changing the length of the front suspension support rod.
