Important Effects of Positive and Negative Toe On Steering and Handling

In this video I'll explain what toe is and also its effects in straight line driving and handling around corners and turns. Whether you want positive or negative toe in the front and also how the toe angle on your car is adjusted by inner and outer tie rods and sometimes eccentric bolts.

Thank you very much.
I've just done a bit of work on my car and the car that used to practically drive itself doesn't anymore.
Now I know why and what to do.
I am grateful.

Yet another example of the compromises we made in every aspect of life, including highly engineered, rigid systems. Good vid.

I run 3 degrees toe out. Its the BEST!

[rickhuttono]

Exactly what we've been looking for years, , , uhh decades...

I'd say centuries, but I haven't been here that long... And if I had been here that long, , , now I'd be looking for wheelchair alignments 😵‍💫 ...

If we assume that there is only one wheel had a minor issue with the toe, then how to diagnose which wheel is toe-in or toe-out, the left wheel or the right wheel?

[ObamaoZedong]

I like my toe angle to look like Mater from the movie Cars.

[hehk]

What's the typically toe-in degrees for your average 4 door?

[nedcramdon]

Front wheel drive or rear wheel.
Not the same.

I'm in the middle of editing a Gen4 Outback steering rack replacement video, and use jack stands and kite string to do the tow alignment...
