Convergence
Convergence is defined as the difference in distances (B-A) between the front and rear sides of the wheel rims and is regulated by the rotation of the steering rods. Positive toe means the wheels are closer together at the front than at the rear when measured at wheel midpoint height. The toe angle of the left front wheel can be reduced by turning the tie rod towards the front of the vehicle. The toe-in of both front wheels is adjusted by turning both tie rods equally.
Convergence (B-A): 0±2mm
After adjustment, tighten the locknuts of the tie rod ends and the collars of the steering gear covers.
Adjust the convergence of each wheel within±1.5 mm.
Tie-rod end locknut tightening torque: 50–55 Nm
Collapse
Camber is the angle of the wheel in relation to the road surface in a vertical plane. The camber is set at the factory by setting the steering knuckle at a certain angle and cannot be adjusted during operation.
Camber: 0°± 30'
Pitch Angle
The caster angle of the kingpin is set at the time of manufacture of the vehicle and cannot be adjusted. If the kingpin pitch angle is not as specified, replace bent or damaged parts.
Pivot Angle:
- vehicles with power steering: 1°54'±30'
- vehicles without power steering: 2°24'±30'
Note.
- 1. Before checking and adjusting wheel alignment, the front suspension must be free of worn, loose, or damaged parts.
- 2. Wheel alignment must be carried out using special computer equipment.
- 3. The camber and caster angle of the kingpin are set at the time of manufacture of the vehicle and cannot be adjusted.
- 4. If camber and kingpin caster are not within specifications, replace bent or damaged parts.
- 5. The difference between the camber angle and caster between the left and right wheels should be within 0°±30'.
