Had a couple emails for builder's interested in laser method to set the wheel's toe-in. Rather than repeating, thought I'd write up and post as attachment for anyone who may be interested. Hope it's helpful. Gordon________________________________________________________________________________

I don't know about using lasers and such . . . just spin the wheels and make a chalk line on each wheel, then make the distance exactly the same on the front and back of the wheels. Can't get much simpler than that.Gene________________________________________________________________________________
