1. INSPECT TIRE

  1. Measure the tires for wear and proper inflation pressure.

    Cold tire inflation pressure:
    2WD (Single cab):
    Tire Size
    		Front Pressure
    		Rear Pressure
    195R14C (8PR 106/104S)
    		240 kPa (2.4 kgf*cm2, 35 psi)
    		300 kPa (3.0 kgf*cm2, 44 psi)
    205/70R15C (8PR 106/104S)
    		240 kPa (2.4 kgf*cm2, 35 psi)
    		330 kPa (3.3 kgf*cm2, 48 psi)
    2WD (Extra, Double cab):
    Tire Size
    		Front Pressure
    		Rear Pressure
    195R14C (8PR 106/104S)
    		260 kPa (2.6 kgf*cm2, 38 psi)
    		260 kPa (2.6 kgf*cm2, 38 psi)
    205/70R15C (8PR 106/104S)
    		260 kPa (2.6 kgf*cm2, 38 psi)
    		290 kPa (2.9 kgf*cm2, 42 psi)
    4WD:
    Tire Size
    		Front Pressure
    		Rear Pressure
    205R16C (8PR 110/108S)
    		240 kPa (2.4 kgf*cm2, 35 psi)
    		240 kPa (2.4 kgf*cm2, 35 psi)
    255/70R15C (112/110S)
    		200 kPa (2.0 kgf*cm2, 29 psi)
    		200 kPa (2.0 kgf*cm2, 29 psi)



    R003031E02

  1. Using a dial indicator, measure the tire runout.

    Tire runout:
    3.0 mm (0.118 in.) or less



2. ROTATE TIRE


C113172E01

  1. Rotate the tires.

    HINT:
    The rotation method is different depending on the type of the vehicle's wheels and spare tire's wheel (see illustration).



3. INSPECT WHEEL BALANCE


C080976E02

  1. Check and adjust the balance of the wheels.

    Imbalance after adjustment:
    Tire Size
    		Balance Weight
    195R14C (8PR 106/104S)
    		15 g (0.033 lb) or less
    205/70R15C (8PR 106/104S)
    205R16C (8PR 110/108S)
    255/70R15C (112/110S)
    		14 g (0.030 lb) or less



4. INSPECT WHEEL BEARING BACKLASH

  1. Inspect the front wheel bearing backlash for 2WD (Click here).

  1. Inspect the front wheel bearing backlash for 4WD (Click here).

  1. Inspect the rear wheel bearing backlash (Click here).



5. INSPECT AXLE HUB DEVIATION

  1. Inspect the front axle hub deviation for 2WD (Click here).

  1. Inspect the front axle hub deviation for 4WD (Click here).

  1. Inspect the rear axle hub deviation (Click here).
