Any body have a problem with their front tires wearing badly on the inside? This is the third set that has gone to the wire on the toe end side. I have had four aliments at three different places and problem still hampers me. Total rebuild on the front end. Adjustable plates on top. I have even enlonged the slots on top to allow more adjustment. Is this just a measure of too much toe end?

What specs are they aligning to? Do you have a printout?

I have one somewhere. It will take me awhile to find it if it is still around. I think they do the factory specs. If I remember it was 1/8 toe-in on that part.

What was camber set to? Based on some recent research, anything more than 0.5- 0.75 degrees does lead to the issue you are seeing as well.

90-93 Mustangs have the factory setting at 1.5 degrees of camber.

Excessive caster can also cause what you are seeing as well.

I can not say. It will have to wait till I find that dang print out or go to where I last had the alignment and get a new one.
