alignment

[LostXRS]

anyone know if there is a way to do alignment for the rear since its a once piece for the xrs?

The XRS has independent rear suspension, not a torsion bar system. It is aligned very similarly to the front.

really when i went to the shop they said that there is no specs on how to adjust the rear toe and stuff.

No it does not. It is the same as the 1.8L.

Some aftermarket companies have provided "shims" to adjust the rear on other rear torsion bar suspension setups from Toyota.

From Toyota though, there is no alignment adjustment for the rear.

(PS: Only the Matrix XRS and Matrix AWD have IRS).

The truth is it doesn't have independent rear suspension! It has the same torsion beam setup as the 1.8L models!

You can order aftermarket camper kit to do extra alignment if needed!

You must be talking about the front though, as the rear camber shouldn't change when dropping the vehicle.

I have a 2009 xrs and just replaced both rear tires 2 months ago. and they already sound like old winter tires. both are cuped on the inside. i had the alingnment checked and they are within toyota's spec. the dealer will not do anything about it. totally useless... neither will toyota canada. some people have mentioned shims. but the alignment shop wont touch it. any suggestions?

hah it's either im imagining things or my eyes aren't that good (i have glasses too ) but yea it's the back. seems just a little tad bit tilted to me. maybe the fender is tricking me into thinking it's sucking in the tire lol
