Bill. PTSchram 11-11-2004, 05:08 AM Trackrod in front of axle ,toe in.. trackrod behind axle ,toe out. Bill. Sounds good to me. I aim for 1/16" as sometime back I calculated the offset for 16' of angle and got the 1/16" as being real close.

Ball joints in compression. portalrover 11-11-2004, 12:51 PM If your trackrod is a thick,stiff and solid bar, (sounds obscene ) it would not matter if you had toe in or toe out. But LandRovers have long, thin, hollow and wobbly track rods, so they must be set up so that when the wheels pull straight ahead and parallel the track rod is under tension not compression.
