This video cover the front wheel alignment , more specific Toe In and Out . Using a simple string and a ruler. It works on most classic cars and modern cars.

I like videos like these. They're educational. Even though its long, the guy is succinct and to the point. No dilly dallying or going off topic. I watched other videos and they confused me. I need information, not people's life story. Thank you.
I've done this method since I was young when I was helping my grand father to calibrate his car alignment. It was the same teaching as him. I learnt a lot of knowledge of old school engineering methods from him. Thanks to reveal this method on social media again, Sir.
This is literally THE BEST alignment video I've seen with perfect examples and explanations of what you're doing. Many many MANY thanks for taking the time to do this.
Nicely explained...I've been a tech for many many yrs and used very expensive garage equipment to adjust alignment on all types of vehicles.. This couldn't be more simple and shows sometimes simple can be just as efficient.
Wow very impressed with the information given, easy and straight forward delivery, he obviously spends a lot on effort and preparation making it look easy and very well presented, I learned a lot, thanks
Absolutely top notch explanation: video and layout. I normally let my mech handle my alignment matters and your video has added a secondary confirmation check...thank you.
I enjoyed your presentation, my son has just purchased a $21000.00AU Laser self-calibration wheel alignment machine with hoist, (where I live everything is 60% dear than in the US). He will need to do a lot off wheel aliments to recover his costs. Thank you for your tutorial on a manual method.
Excellent video with a few suggestions: I use two string at the same time either side... then setup a 90 degree perfect rectangle adjusted to the exact four centers of each tire/wheel. Much more accurate than measuring with rear wheel only because of error projection (12 inches projected to 100 rear to front... keep in mind that 1 degree error would be huge at the front tire ). The second reason is that using the eccentric bushing on the rear of the automobile wheel bearings we can adjust all four wheels with accurate tracking front to back. BTW this is irrespective of whether the spacing width is equal on the two front vs. the two rear tires. Another point is to place all four tires on several garbage bags to allow for shimming during the adjustment. Kind of acting like skid plates under each wheel. I'm sure your technique will work but the technique I'm talking about is clearly more accurate and allows us to adjust all wheels to factory original.
@antipoopydick Not really, to accurately adjust the wheels, they need to be in contact and under load. Ideally, you would have frictionless skid plate under each wheel, or at least three of them.
Great video. I just watched Edd China doing alignment on his channel with a really simple tool, which helped him to adjust camber and even caster. No electronics or anything like that was needed. But this method is even more simple for Toe in-out. I have not tried it myself yet, but I'm sure it is very effective.
What a handsome car. Your suspension components look very clean and cared for. I wish we had British cars like this here in the United States. I have a 2017 Mazda MX-5 that I'm slowly cleaning and improving bit by bit. Previous owner had it in Florida near the beach so I'm finding sand everywhere under the car. I hope sand won't cause any rust issues but I keep the car dry now. Take good care.
Just came across your video as my front left has toe put and my front right is more or less straight. After watching and listening to your excellent explanation, i will give this a go tomorrow :) so thank you.
I followed the procedure he describes, and it does work. My car, 1984 Corvette, pulled to left really bad. It was never properly aligned after front end damage required replacement of the rack and pinion mechanism. I got it to steer mostly straight then after using it for several days decided to give it one more tweak. It now steers OK, not perfect, but good enough for a 39-year-old car (10/83).
Excellent work. Love this tutorial. ❤today i changed all my mounts and rack and steering ends then i realize i have toe in. So ill follow this vid. Love this
excellent video and explained thoroughly to the end, im impressed, i was trying to understand this a little more in depth and the way you presented it really helped, thanks!
Exactly how my dad showed me how to do it and how I’ve been doing it for years. Trying to encourage my 18 yr old son to get his hands dirty is another matter 🤔
Thanks for the comments, indeed this an old school method. And yes, I see it daily that youngster miss the basis for many things. They rely on electronic gadgets and automation, and seem to forget that even those have their basis in the basic principles
Thanks very much for sharing your experience and your thoughts with us on this topic of videos please stay safe and healthy and have a wonderful blessed maestro
Simple math, very well explained, a lot of examples, also practicing what he actually teaches on an actual car. after dozens of hours spent on youtube trying to find what i need, i saw your vid and everything get so so simple. I spent in a video 40 mins to watch a so called explanation of this alligment and after that time "it's a serious job, just drive your car to the nearest shop since you dont have a laser equippment". i started screaming... I can't thank you enough for it!!! cheers from Romania mate!
Would setting each wheel toe in till 2mm not give you 4mm toe in overall. I thought it might 1mm toe in each side would mean 2mm toe in overall. I suppose it just depends on the car manufacturer. Some might say overall and some might say per side.
Thanks for the comments... In principle the TOE in or out value is per wheel. In fact its derived from an angel and the angle of both wheels needs to be the same... Unless it would be specified by the manufacturer
@@D3Sshooter I have the same question on the toe. In the example it's2 mm perfront wheel correct? So 4 total. I'm reading your reply to this previous question but when I click the read more button it doesn't show the rest of the answer but rather sends me replying to you. Also how did you fasten that metal piece to the rear wheel or did you have someone hold it while you checked the front and one more question it look like you did both examples on the right side of the car correct? I was wondering why when you did the laser the measurement was an equal distance on the front wheel not showing any toe in or out I think I'm missing something here but I'm definitely learning
Bloody beautiful Steve once again great explanation of that part of wheel alignment Can you also cover camber and castor in the future so then I can be fully in the know Love your work keep it up Cheers Frank 🇦🇺
Really useful. Many thanks. I'm about to replace the rotors and calipers and I think there is an issue with the tie rod end. Your video helped me understand the set up.
Thank you for a clear presentation. How can we accept the rear wheel rim as a reference for paralell to the chassis if we don't know the rear suspension toe setting is zero to begin with. Thanks again.
Every clear presentation’ thanks. My question is on the road there is always a camber. So the car leans to the right ?The example is from RWD . How would you check the rear wheels for a start, for FWD cars?
Nice video but curious how you got that 2mm figure. Seems like it has to be specified to be at a specific spot or it would not make sense. So you would have to say something like "edge of the rim on a 14" rim, or edge of the tire on a 215/65R14 tire etc and be very specific. Is that how it's originally specified? Or, what seems more likely, the spec is given as an angle and you figured out that 2mm from a calculation? If you work with angles there is no confusion possible, but that is also harder to actually implement in the shop without more complex tools. [Edited for format - dang hyphens...]
Thanks for the comments, for standard rims as fitted on the MGB GT the Toe In is between 1.5 - 2.5mm. Of course larger or smaller rims will have an effect on the angle if aligned by measuring in mm. . That is why a pure angle measurement is better. Never the less the Toe in value is what you desire based on your driving and expected road handling. In practice it is what you want to set it to based on a road test. In this case the 2 mm is a good start.
On the Mini (I'm not sure about the MG) there is a nylon screw on the steering rack body. The screw is behind a rubber plug in the floor on the opposite side from the steering shaft. If you unscrew that screw, it gives access to a hole drilled in the rack shaft. You drop a drill bit through this screw hole into the rack when the steering rack in in its centre position. The drill bit should be located in the middle of the hole in the floor to be sure that the rack is centralized in the body. Then you can set the position the steering wheel, and set the toe with the steering rack jammed in proper position. Afterwards, remove the drill bit, put the nylon screw back in, and the rubber plug back in the floor.
Bedankt, ja die motor is heel wat werk geweest en loopt goed... wat extra PK's en nu nog een 123 Ignition plaatsen met de App zodat ik de advance en vacuum curve zelf kan instellen

Great video and very good explanation! 👍 I'm so tired of that my steering wheel on my Golf not being in the right position when i'm driving in a straight line and i really want to do something with it. Maybe i can do it myself after watching your video? I only need to know how much toe out my car should have.
Would this still work if there was a slight difference in height between the front and rear of car as long as the car was level on both sides and the string still passed through the centre of the wheels?

As dQuad stated as long as the string passes the center of the hub you are ok. For the second part , I mover the ruler left - right / up-down until you read the shortest distance
Is it just me ..but ive never heard of loosing the so called "gator clip" on the bellows boots on the inner tie rod before making an adjustment... in my experience the inelner tie rod just kinda slips as it spins and the boot doesn't get twisted up or damaged at all. Is there something about this particular vehicle where they are extremely tight or something .?
thanks for a very detailed explanation on checking alignment and how to adjust the tow in, or tow out if needed, ps nice old MG from UK. 1960s ? thanks again.
Just found this great video. Have used a similar method before myself I think the hardest part is actually getting under some cars to do this.. 4 caravan ramps/levellers maybe a good solution so long as everything sits level..
Thank you, this was a very clear explanation of the string method of aligning the front wheels. You mention that with independent 4-wheel suspension this method is less useful. Do you have an alternate method for these cars?

On the Mini (I'm not sure about the MG) there is a nylon screw on the steering rack body.
The screw is behind a rubber plug in the floor on the opposite side from the steering shaft.
If you unscrew that screw, it gives access to a hole drilled in the rack shaft.
You drop a drill bit through this screw hole into the rack when the steering rack in in its centre position.
The drill bit should be located in the middle of the hole in the floor to be sure that the rack is centralized in the body.
Then you can set the position the steering wheel, and set the toe with the steering rack jammed in proper position.
Afterwards, remove the drill bit, put the nylon screw back in, and the rubber plug back in the floor.

Would this still work if there was a slight difference in height between the front and rear of car as long as the car was level on both sides and the string still passed through the centre of the wheels? In other words, parking on a very slight incline. The other thing I'm unsure about is how do you ensure the retractable steel tape measure is at a 90degree angle to the wheels when measuring X,Y,Z and K as if the angle is slightly more or less than 90 degrees than the whole exercise would be compromised.

If the string passes the centreline of both wheels you will be fine. As long as the measuring tape angle is reasonably close to 90 deg (say 85-95 deg), the error should be pretty minimal. You can reduce the effect of the error by putting the string further from the wheels.
