Toe should only be checked and adjusted after the caster and camber have been adjusted to specification.
Check toe with the front wheels in the straight ahead position. Lock steering wheel in place and measure distance between extreme front and also between the extreme rear of both front wheels. The difference between these two distances is the toe-in, or toe-out dimensions, Fig. 3.
