when the trucks go down the road the front wheels are forced outward and that is why all front tires require toe in so when the are going down the road the tires then run straight and not toed out !

I spent nearly my entire adult life in the trucking industry as both a for hire driver and owner operator. Part of that is wearing out tires and getting the most miles for the money.
MJSnodgrass said he just rebuilt the intire front end, with everything tight and in plumb then the toe-in should be set at no less than zero and no more than minus one thirtyseconth of an inch.
Tire highth has nothing to do with it.

I agree with stock car nut, toe in should be as close to zero as possible,a tiny bit toed in is ok, toed out a tiny bit is not ok. By tiny bit I mean atiny bit. I also have set alot of toe ins. May I suggest you set and measure the toe with the truck sitting on the ground, not jacked up. After each adjustment move the truck forward and back before you remeasure. Good luck.

I do 1/8-1/4 toed in.
have worked in many truck shops and heard all the do it yourself techniques.. Ive never heard of no toe in..
Could be wrong though.
But Ive had much success with the 1/8-1/4" toe in rule..
