Streetside outer tie rod end replacement; adjusting toe in to get it close.

Hi Randy,

I don't know how to answer your precise question. Even with a cheapie trammel gauge I give up and sight across the tire bulges at the center of the wheel toward the rear tire edges. I'd like to devise something more accurate, because I've learned to have more confidence in my "marksmanship" method than those $70 alignments I've received in the past. I "shoot" for something just a quarter turn inward of that wandery feel you get if you do zero toe-in. I wish I was smart enough to put that otherwise useless gift of a laser level to good use here.
