How do you do a front end alignment?

Answer by  MechMan3 (885)

It will depend on what type of vehicle you have. There are many ways to align the caster, camber, and toe. You can do a crude alignment by measuring the inside of the tire in the front and the inside of the tire in the back. This will be good enough to get a real alignment.

Aliment should be done at home but at a shop. You should measure your tires from corner to corner to make sure they are straight so it driven to an aliment shop. Otherwise you will run into vibration and tire wear issue down the road.

This really needs to be done on alignment machine. They will get the wheels perfectly true. Trying to do this yourself you might never get it straight. To get it in the ballpark so it can be driven to get aligned though just measure from the front edge to edge and back edge to edge to insure they are square.
