TOE-IN

Table 1 Toe-In For All Steer Axles- No Load

Toe-In Specification- No Load
0 to 1/8 Inch 0 to .125 Inch 0 to .180 Degrees

CAMBER

NOTE Camber is predrilled in the I-beam by the supplier, and within the following specifications, and
is not an issue in tire tread life or handling on North American highways. Cold inflation and toe-in are
the prime factors in tread life.

NOTE International and its suppliers will not approve adjusting CAMBER by bending the I-beam.

Camber Tolerance: +/- .437 degrees per side
