A system for providing toe and camber adjustment for a wheel drum which is normally fixed in location on a vehicle wherein one end of a control arm is relatively fixedly mounted on the wheel drum and the other end of the control arm is mounted for movement in an arcuate path about a relatively fixed axis for changing the angular relationship between the longitudinal axis of the vehicle and the rotational axis of the wheel drum so as to vary the toe and camber of the wheel drum.

Apparatus for adjusting the toe and camber of a normally fixed wheel of a vehicle comprising: a vehicle having a longitudinal axis; a wheel drum; means for mounting said wheel drum on said vehicle for rotation about an axis extending generally perpendicular to said longitudinal axis; a control arm having a central portion thereof operatively connected with said means for mounting said wheel drum; said control arm having spaced apart ends extending outwardly from said central portion; a first bracket mounted in a fixed position on said vehicle; said control arm having one of said ends thereof mounted in said first bracket so as to permit slight relative movement between said one end and said first bracket; a second bracket mounted in a fixed position on said vehicle; mounting means for mounting the other end of said control arm in said second bracket; rotatable means in said mounting means for moving at least a portion of said other end of said control arm through an arcuate path about a relatively fixed axis extending in a direction generally perpendicular to said longitudinal axis of said vehicle for changing the angular relationship between said longitudinal axis of said vehicle and said rotational axis of said wheel drum to adjust simultaneously the toe and camber of said wheel drum to a desired position; and means for locking said rotatable means to retain said wheel drum in said desired position.
