Default Re: Toe in adjustment

Toe in is not to take up slop in the front steering. Toe in is to compensate for the fact that with king pin inclination the front tire rotate in a cone shaped formation. If you roll a cone on the floor it will quickly not roll forward or backward in a straight line. So the tires are inclined inward to shape the tire tread touching the road surface so it can roll forward in a straight line.
