Proper alignment on a 2018 Toyota Avalon Hybrid means setting front and rear camber, caster, and toe to Toyotas published specifications using calibrated OEM-grade equipment. Front adjustments typically include camber and toe, with caster verified; rear adjustments focus on camber and toe where adjustable. Centering the steering wheel and confirming thrust angle ensure straight-ahead tracking.
