Toe

Toe-in and toe-out refer to the difference in the distance between the extreme front and extreme rear of the tires.

• Toe-in (positive toe) occurs when the dimension taken at the front of the tires is less than that taken at the rear of the tires.
• Toe-out (negative toe) occurs when the dimension taken at the front of the tires is greater than that taken at the rear of the tires.
• If aftermarket equipment that significantly affects the ride height (i.e., snowplow, second unit bodies, tool boxes) is added, the toe may need to be adjusted. Toe should be maintained at the specified setting with the vehicle in the loaded condition experienced for more than 50 percent of use.
• Toe should only be checked and adjusted after the caster and camber have been adjusted to specification. Refer to Wheel Alignment,Front in the Specifications portion of this section.
