Toe In/Toe Out

When you have wheels with camber it is important to get the wheels set up correctly. Toe in is

when the front of the wheels is closer together than the back of the wheels. It makes it so the

wheels are trying to come together when going forward. Toe out is the opposite; where the

wheels are trying to move away from each other.

To check this:

1. Put the wheel locks on and measure to the centre of the wheel hub

2. Mark this height on the front and rear of each tyre (a small piece of tape you can draw a line

on works well and is easy to remove after)

3. Now measure between the tyres at the front and at the rear at this height marker, the

distance should be the same

If there is toe in or toe out:

•

A set of washers is 4 washers, one on each bolt, either front or back depending on toe in

or out, that hold the axle plate on. One washer will go on with the camber washers and

the other will go on the bolt above it. Putting an extra set of washers in will change the

measurement by around 8mm.

•

If for example you have 516mm at the front and 500mm at the rear and your wheel centre

height is 305mm.

•

Take the wheels off and loosen all the bolts holding the axle plate in place.

•

Remove the two rear bolts, without losing the camber washers, and fit 2 more washers on

each bolt between the axle plate and the frame. Do this on both sides.

•

Tighten all axle bolts and put the wheels back on.

•

Measure the height marks used before and make sure they are all 305mm and put the wheel

locks on.

•

Check the heights again as they can move when putting the wheel locks on.

•

Measure the front and rear width again and both should be around 508mm. It is preferable

to have toe in rather than toe out as an exact adjustment is hard to get with the washers.
