Which direction do do you turn the tie rod to adjust toe-in
Clockwise or Counter Clockwise.

Paul Shinn has a good video which covers the procedure. You can find this on YouTube. |

I love Paul's videos, but there is a way way better method to setting the toe in.
Use these plates. I have and they are much more accurate. https://www.tmrcustoms.com/products/...alignment-tool Here is the youtube video from the Main A's on these plates: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MT4H26Vj7n8 |

I'll have to measure things to see how tall the vertical leg needs to be. The cost isn't bad vs. a version in Masonite that had compromises.

Keith, you have asked a good question. The answer is either way! You have to move tie rod to see what is happening. This is because when your car was assembled, you don't know what tie rod ends were placed on the tie rod and how it was mounted in the car. It goes together either way! It is easy to see. Before moving the tie rod, take a measurement, move the tie rod 1/2-1 turn and take another measurement. Did you increase toe-in or decrease it. Adjust as necessary. Ed
