I have a similar, if not the same, toe-in measuring tool. What I'm
leery of is finding a way to insure that each front wheel has the
same toe-in angle compared the the rear wheel on the same side. Not
easy to ascertain. The tool is rather flexible.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">I have the same alignment tool. Place
the tool behind the front wheels and set the pointer to
zero. Then place the tool in front of the front wheels and
the pointer should indicate toe in of 1/16” ( I think this
is the spec - check you manual). Make sure that your
steering wheel is centered. If the toe in is not within
spec, turn the tie rod ends on each side equally until you
have the correct measurement. Lots of trial and error
involved. It may take you a while to get it correct. <o:p></o:p></p>
