Re: Cheap fix 05 rear tire wear

The toe measurement I listed is within factory spec . The procedure is barbaric but effective . I hear of many trying a professional alignment only to get a “ can’t do it , adjusters are froze” response. Yes the bolt gets froze to the steel sleeve of the bushing but it can still be turned just enou...

Re: Cheap fix 05 rear tire wear

Ok I went back and re read it. I understand that the norm is toe out, which is what I am dealing with. Cannot move the adjustment bushing at all, even with a breaker bar. I must go the "turn buckle from a Camry route, is that what it is called?

Re: Cheap fix 05 rear tire wear

Also when I did my measurement My front tire measure was 57. 4/10ths" My back measurement was 56. 9/10ths, So that seem that my toe is already about a half inch out and I need to adjust it in. So do I still seek to turn the nut counterclock wise for right rear? Doe that move the toe in?

Re: Cheap fix 05 rear tire wear

If the toe adjusters really can’t be forced to move anymore , a turn buckle unit can be scarfed from an old camry and welded into the arm but I haven’t had to do this yet Image Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk. I recently had to use this method of repair on the right rear of a Kizashi where the to...

Re: My Dealer-less TPMS Tire Change Story

Ok just bought a 2011 Kizashi and the TPMS is on, was from the moment I bought it, I am taking with the dealer about this as I pointed it out right away. Still, I thought it was tire pressure issue, they had put in two new tires and four new sensors. The dealer was a former Suzuki dealer so they sho...

System did reset and it drove for about 10 miles and the TPMS system warning came on with the big fl...
