98 4x4 Toe-In Specs?

I just replaced the Tie Rod ends.

Anyone know what the toe-in is supposed to be?

I put it at 1/8" for now.

You're seriously going to set the toe measuring in inches???

It's 0.10 degrees +/- 0.15 on each side for a total toe of .20 +/- .25

On a 33" tire, a really rough trigonometric calculation puts the difference from the front of the tire to the rear of the tire at 0.058". That's less than a sixteenth of an inch, and a little over a 3/64. Hope you're using an extra-fine tape measure!

Hey Thanks!

My other vehicle is a 65 mustang and believe it or not, toe specs were measured in inches for a long time before they switched to degrees.
