Default Finally set my toe in

So after a few months of having my lift and tires on, I finally got around to setting my toe in. I didn't think it would really make much difference, but damn, I'm glad I did it. I had to set it about 3/16 to get 1/8 toe in, and it tracks way better now, the wander is almost completely gone. So basically I am saying to any of you new-to-lifts-guys like myself, you should definetly consider getting your toe in dialed.

X2 - WOL has done a great job of explaining things. The only two things i can think of suggesting that made it take a bit longer for me are: 1. make sure the engine is on... it is impossible to move the tires without it being on. 2. have someone there to help you measure as it is too hard to get an accurate measurement by yourself.

That was the first thing I did after my OME lift and it was definitely the most noticeable improvement.
