- Measure toe with front wheels straight-ahead and steering wheel locked in a centered position. Adjust toe by loosening clamps and adjusting sleeve or adjusting ends on right and left tie rods equally and in opposite directions to maintain steering wheel in centered position.
- If steering wheel is not centered to begin with, determine which tire assembly is toed in or out more than the other and compensate adjustment more to that side to center steering wheel. A couple of tries will probably be necessary to properly center steering wheel.
- When tightening clamps, make sure that clamp bolts are positioned so there will be no interference with other parts throughout entire travel of steering linkage.
