Front Wheel Toe-In: Inspection

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2003 Subaru Outback, 2003 Subaru Legacy, 2003 Subaru Baja, 2002 Subaru Outback, and 2002 Subaru Legacy. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Using a toe gauge, measure front wheel toe-in.
1. Toe-in: 0 +/- 3 mm (0 +/- 0.12 in)
Mark rear sides of left and right tires at height corresponding to center of spindles and measure distance "A" between marks.
Move vehicle forward so that marks line up with front sides at height corresponding to center of spindles.
Measure distance "B" between left and right marks. Toe-in can then be obtained by the following equation:
1. A - B = Toe-in
