Front wheel travel measurement



Track should be the same front and back so you can do a string alignment with wheels off or on. I used to do mine wheels on on the ground. Put the front wheels on two sheets of plastic with a spray of oil between: better than a ball bearing setup!

I would take a 2/32 spacer taped to the front edge of both front and back tires (at the fastest bulge) and dial in the toe to get the string perfectly straight (oh: 255 square setup).

It's 0.15° a bit aggressive toe in vs. maximum tire lifespan but I error a little toe in to avoid wandering feel if too straight forward.

I didn't bother with getting tge steering wheel straight just get the passenger front string straight with steering wheel then dial the driver wheel straight with the outer tie rod. Takes minutes.
