How far does the tie rod end move with one complete turn, i need to reduce my toe-in by at least 1/8".
Thanks

Rick

According to this thread, one turn should change the length of the tie rod by about 1/8 inch:

Rick the tie rod end has 11/16 x 24 threads. 24 threads per inch divided by 8 = 3. Seems to me you should try 3 complete rotations to get 1/8". Seem logical? It's working out correctly in my brain but past experience has shown me that means exactly NOTHING. Lol

Dang it Mark. I should have refreshed one more time to see what anyone had said before posting that. Disregard my post.
