Adjust with the tie rods after loosening the lock nuts. Adjusting towards a positive value will give toe-in and towards a negative value toe-out.

NOTE:

The lengths of the tie rods must not vary between themselves by more than 2mm. Measure between the lock nut and the edge of thread.

Tighten the lock nut, outer steering arm inner to steering arm inner. See: Tightening torque .

Treat the strut threads using rustproofing agent after tightening.
