This reminds me of my time before correcting the bump and rebound changes  
in my TR's system; part of the process is to exactly center the rack  First. 
 The TR had 1.2" toe in on full bump, 1.7" toe Out on  rebound; trying to 
set to 1\32" was some what futile.  Yes, we are talking  inches here!
 
TR Regards,

What I said was:
1/16"  total, or 1/32" on each side.  Up to 1/8" total Toe In would be  
acceptable.

You should center the rack first if possible, but I just  point it 
straight ahead as I come to a stop.

Pulling to one side  indicates something else not being the same from 
side to side.  I've  got to chase a bit of that myself as I am pulling 
to the left under braking  after my front suspension swap.  I'll try 
to do a much more detailed  setting of camber and caster prior to 
re-doing the toe  settings.
