Front Toe-In - Adjustment

[PSIKO]

Hi guys,

I've just fitted some roll centre adjustors to the front, which spaced the knuckles up by perhaps 40mm between the knuckle and LCA.

However I now have some significant toe-in issues.

My question is, is this something adjusted by shortening the tie-rods? Or do I need to consider aftermarket items? I'll of course get an alignment done, but in the meantime to prevent the tyres rubbing everytime I push the car around, I'd rather have the pieces all ready to go for the alignment centre.

Cheers!

adjust it your self so wheels are straight and see if you run out of thread, then get it aligned properly at a shop

yes, wind the thread into the tie-rod ends (shorten them) to reduce toe-in.. Will check notes in garage downstairs but it's something like 1/2 turn of the rack end rod equals approx 2mm toe/

Perfect, that's just what I was chasing, thanks Andy!
