Toe setting data

[Plimmer]

Thought I'd share with those who might be interested. Went to the alignment shop today and asked the guy to help me out with what happens as I turn the toe adjusters.

So here is what I learned:

1/4 turn of the front tie rod = 0.19 deg starting from 0

1/4 turn of the rear BMR toe link = 0.16 deg starting from 0

Mu car is lowered about 1.5" and I have a bump steer kit up front, also my camber is -2.5 all 4 corners, so don't know if this will be applicable for your set up, but thought I'd share the results of turning them 1/4 turn.:cheers::cheers:

Why?? So you can make changes between sessions at the track to see what works and what doesn't.

It should be more than close enough for trackside adjustment purposes.

Just to clarify,

is that a 1/4 turn of _both_ tie rods equals a total of .19*

or

a 1/4 turn of _one_ tie rod equals a total toe change of .19*

Good information! A good set of toe plates are only $50 or $60 and are great to throw in the toolbox if you are making changes at the track so you can quickly confirm your settings.

Absolutely!

Yeah, the 1/4 is one tie rod and the change is to that side.
