Toe control link ball joint rotational torque
0.3—2.2 N·m {4—22 kgf·cm, 3—19 in·lbf}
Pull scale reading: 3—22 N {0.3—2.2 kgf, 0.7—4.9 lbf}
If not within the specification, replace the toe control link. (See TOE CONTROL LINK REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
1. Remove the toe control link from the vehicle. (See TOE CONTROL LINK REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
2. Inspect the lateral link for bending or damage. If there is any malfunction, replace the lateral link.
3. Inspect the ball joint for looseness. If there is any malfunction, replace the ball joint.
4. Rotate the ball joint 5 times.
5. Install the SST to the ball stud, and measure the ball joint rotational torque using a pull scale.
