I'd be interested is seeing the Rick Nerves 'lazer-level' technique.

DM / WA State


  I'm measuring the Toe-in on my '56 BN-2. It is driving real nice but I just
  wanted to make sure the toe-in was set within range.

  I'm using a laser level that I purchased for 10$ and a 2X4. Just for kicks!

  I'm getting a measurement of about 0.4 degrees and I think that corresponds
  to  around 0.09 inches toe-in.

  My question is in regards to how the toe in is measured.

  I guess it may seem obvious to some but, is it the distance that the forward
  edge of the tire turns in relative to the center of the tire? I know that
  some people measure the rear edge and compare that to the front edge but
  then do they divide by two?
  My laser level technique is kinda cool, if anybody is interested I can put
  the procedure up on my website www.RickNeves.com



  Sincerely


  Rick Neves
  '56 BN-2
