Toe specs?

I'm in need of toe spec's for a 1995 ranger 2wd, 4cl 2.3L. Old tires wore badly on the inside. That leads me to believe that it is toed out too far, Am I correct. I understand how to check the toe but I need to know what measurement is close to being correct. Thanks

0.06 Degrees, plus or minus 0.25 That's from my 1999 Ranger manual.

From what I have learned, if your tires are worn badly on the inside, it's usually a sign of too much negative camber. But if the tire treads are "feathered" towards the inside, then you're correct in suspecting the toe specs. Just my 2 cents, but anyways... I don't think Ive ever actually seen alignment specs measured in anything other than degrees. How would one perform an alignment like this without a machine? I mean, when you say you're using a tape measure, what point on the vehicle are you using to measure from? This whole idea is new to me.

are tehy worn smooth or kinda choppy?

smooth would be a camber issue. this happens alot on 97 and older rnagers as they age, due to the springs sagging out.

if its kinda choppy then I would look in to toe.

give me a few day and Ill do a how to get alighn your truck pretty well in the drive way,write up.
