The Ford Barn - View Single Post - How do you get front wheels straight before setting Toe-In

If you were looking at the car from a bird's eye view, and one wheel has more toe-in or toe-out while the other wheel is perfectly point straight ahead, what do you adjust?

How do you guys get both wheels straight before setting the toe-in?
What do you measure against?

Do you eyeball each wheel straight ahead, and then adjust each end of the tie-rod evenly with the other end until you can drop the tie-rod onto both wheels?

What are some other ways to make sure both wheels are pointed ahead before you start setting Toe-In?

Toe-In I understand... but how do you make sure one wheel isn't pointed more in or out before you even start.
