I want to try and do a toe in check on my 1967 IIa. I believe the spec for the LR is 1/8" toe in. My question is at what point along the diameter or the wheel and tire is that measurement made? I'm imagining using two straight edges attached to the sides of the tires and on line with the center of the tire and made parallel to the ground. I would let the straight edges extend forward and measure to see if they were parallel or aiming in or out. If I know where the toe measurement is meant to be taken I can factor in the distance from that point.
Is the 1/8" measured at the centerline of the rim or is it at the forward point of the contact patch on the ground?
I had the LR done my a mechanic but I wasn't present to see the process and just want to check it myself. Some say that a toe our condition could be the cause of my twitchy steering.
