Turning Angle Inspection
- Raise the vehicle and set the turning radius gauges beneath the front wheels and place boards under the rear wheels the same thickness as the turning radius gauges, then lower the vehicle.
NOTE: Be sure that the vehicle is level with the wheels on the turning radius gauges and boards.
- Turn the steering wheel fully to the right and left while applying the brake and check the turning angles of both front wheels. If the turning angle is not within the specification or the inward turning angles differ between the right and left, go to step 3.
Turning angle:
D15B engine:
Inward: |
40°00' ± 2° |
Outward: |
31°00' (reference) |
D17A engine:
Inward: |
38°00' ± 2° |
Outward: |
30°00' (reference) |
- Check the toe. If it is correct but the turning angle is not within the specification, check for bent or damaged suspension components.

- Raise the vehicle and make sure it is securely supported. Remove the wheels.
- Install suitable flat washers (A) and wheel nuts and tighten the nuts to the specified torque to hold the brake disc or drum securely against the hub.
Front:
Rear:
- Set up the dial gauge against the hub flange as shown and measure the bearing end play moving the brake disc or drum inward and outward.
Bearing end play:
Standard:
Front/Rear: |
0 – 0.05 mm
(0 – 0.002 in.)
|
- If the bearing end play is more than the standard, replace the wheel bearing.
