Longacre Racing 79501 Aluminum Toe-in Plates with Magnets and Two Tape Measures, Integrated Magnets Allow One Man Operation, Quick and Easy Way to Check Toe-in

These are a great addition your garage for quick checks of your vehicle’s toe. The only improvement would be to provide an option for metric units ape measures.

Did a couple of alignments with them. Vehicles drive straighter than an alignment service and tires are holding up after quite a number of miles. The tape measures worked fine, but hey sag as measurements are being made. It is very likely they sag to the same catenary curve as long is tension is equivalent so the measurements work. I would always use identical tape measures on both sides due to this phenomenon of physics. I will note, alignments are tricky. Aligning both toes to the caster, steering wheel, camber adjustment for drift and ensuring adequate threads on each tie rod end are all involved. Not to mention tackling the front to rear alignment. These plates will set only toe, but with that, a string, a micrometer, and a level, the rest can be gotten. It can all be done with quite high accuracy, I have been doing my own alignments for years my vehicles drive straighter than ever, and after thousands of miles I am still on the same tires. That being said, getting an alignment completed properly can take quite a bit of time and understanding. Setting toe is the biggest aspect and these plates do that actually pretty good.

Very simple to set up and measure toe-in/out without an extra set of hands and while the wheels and tires are on. Comes with two identical tape measures adequate for the job. A little more expensive than the competition, but high quality, and the magnets hold the tape measures in place well.

Exactly what i needed to get my toe all dialled in on my cars
