Sorta near on topic, setting toe in.
I gotta replace my tie rod ends. Darn tires start fluttering back and forth at speeds
over 60 mph. The ends are wasted bad. After replacing them it means I need to set toe in
either by tape measure or some other means.
I'm thinking of a board with my laser level placed against tire at mid point of rim. Point
it at a target 12' in front of the center line of the wheel and mark the laser spot for
each wheel. Then point backwards 12 feet. I figure roughly that if the distance between
the beam pointing toward the front is X the distance for the beam should be about x+2 inch
assuming 1/8" toe in, ~32" diam tire.
Does that sound right?
Thanks,
Wes
