Alignment setting help

[gearhead22]

Hello all, I’m running 37’s. I’m having an alignment done tomorrow and want to have a degree measurement to tell the tech to set it to. I’m shooting for 1/16 to 1/8 toe in. What would this equate to in degrees? Also, when someone refers to say 1/8 toe in, is this total toe in? So when you convert to degrees it would be total degrees?

Just trying to have all this so I can recommend some settings to the alignment tech tomorrow. I’m shooting for 6 degrees of caster as well. Would you recommend 6 or something different? Thanks!

I recently went from 5.5 deg of castor to 6.5 deg and it was an absolute improvement. I have the TerraFlex AlpineIR control arms, one complete turn of adjustment was the 1 deg. I Assume that was coincidental.

You are correct, with 1/16 to 1/8" toe-in and 6° of positive caster.

thanks! Looks like with a 37, .20 degrees total toe is equivalent to 1/8” and 1/16 is .10. I’ll have them shoot for .20 or a sliver under.

That would be a good call on your part.
