Caster Adjustment: Accord

  1. Raise and support vehicle. Remove lock nut on end of radius (strut) rod. See Fig 1 . Remove radius rod bolts and radius rod from lower control arm.
  2. Adjust caster angle by increasing or decreasing adjusting shims. A 0.13" (3.2 mm) thick shim changes caster angle by .58 degree (35 minutes). Caster angle can be adjusted a maximum of 1.17 degree (one degree, 10 minutes). Install NEW lock nut. Tighten radius rod bolts and lock nuts to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS  . Recheck caster adjustment as necessary.
