NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 5.10.

is replaced.

NOTE: Make the following adjustment for one camber at a time.

1. Open the camber clamps. Refer to Opening/Closing Camber Clamps on page 39.

2. Loosen the phillips screws that secure the adjustment rings to the axle tube.

3. Slowly rotate the axle tube until the rear wheels are approximately in a straight line.
