Bob, I'm still confused. If the tracking relationship of the wheels is cattywampus after the tie rod is installed and each rotation of the rod moves the wheels in or out equally, then how can the correct toe-in be established?

I am still left with a situation where if one wheel is pointing straight ahead the other is on some other angle. Toe-in is based on the relationship of the wheels one to the other as I understand it.
