SUSPENSION AND AXLE – GENERAL INSPECTION SA–3 GENERAL INSPECTION 1. INSPECT TIRE (a) Check the tires for wear and for the proper inflation pressure. Cold tire inflation pressure (2JZ–GE) Tire size | Front kPa (kgf/cm², psi) | Rear kPa (kgf/cm², psi) 225/50ZR16 | 230 (2.3, 33) | — 245/50ZR16 | — | 250 (2.5, 36) Cold tire inflation pressure (2JZ–GTE) Tire size | Front kPa (kgf/cm², psi) | Rear kPa (kgf/cm², psi) 235/45ZR17 | 250 (2.5, 36) | — 255/40ZR17 | — | 250 (2.5, 36) (b) Check the tire runout. Tire runout: Less than 1.4 mm (0.055 in.) 2. INSPECT WHEEL BALANCE (a) Check and adjust the Off–the–car balance. (b) If necessary, check and adjust the On–the–car balance. Unbalance after adjustment: 5.0 g (0.011 lb) or less 3. CHECK WHEEL BEARING LOOSENESS (a) Check the backlash in bearing shaft direction. Maximum: 0.05 mm (0.0020 in.) (b) Check the axle hub deviation. Maximum: 0.05 mm (0.0020 in.) 4. CHECK FRONT SUSPENSION FOR LOOSENESS 5. CHECK STEERING LINKAGE FOR LOOSENESS 6. CHECK BALL JOINT FOR LOOSENESS 7. CHECK SHOCK ABSORBER WORK PROPERLY • Check for oil leak • Check mounting bushings for wear • Bounce front and rear of the vehicle
