  1. Position front wheel in straight ahead position. Remove clamp on tie rod bellows and push bellows back. Loosen tie rod clamping bolts. To adjust, rotate tie rod sleeves equally to obtain specified toe-in.
    NOTE: Never grip tie rod on inner ball joint stud. To avoid ball stud resting against inside of hole in tie rod outer end, center outer end of each rod to ball stud.
  2. Pull bellows over tie rods and secure wire clamps. Bellows must not be twisted and wire ends showing towards steering gear adjusting screw opening. Tighten clamp bolts. Rotate wheel back and forth several times to check bellows for correct attachment to tie rods.
