  1. Loosen right and left tie-rod end lock nuts (1) first.
  2. Rotate right and left tie-rods (2) by the same amount to align toe to specification. In this adjustment, the lengths "A" of both right and left tie-rod should be equal.
    NOTE: Before rotating tie-rods (2), apply grease between tie-rods and rack boots so that boots won't be twisted.
