Front end question.

['02 TACO]

We recently bought a used 2006 4Runner. Looking at it today in the driveway, it looks like the front tires have excessive lean towards the top. Not sure if this is the toe-in or camber/caster. Is this normal? It also looks like the pasenger side leans more than the drivers.

Leaning in or out from the top looking down to the ground is Camber. Toe is similar to your toes pointing in toward each other or away (think pidgeon foot or duck foot). You are not going to be able to eye-ball a wheel alignment. There are some indications that your alignment may not be correct. Things like abnormal tire wear, tracking problems, or steering wheel not centered can give you an idea that something isn't right. Pulling can be caused by impoper alignment, but most typically is cause by the tires. The best thing to do is take it to a shop and have it checked. Most shops will check it for free.

Thanks, I noticed another 4Runner that was similar year to ours and it appeared to have the same amount of camber, so I just wondered if this was normal. It is definantly a noticable amount of camber though.
