Adjusting rear wheel track
I have to check the tracking of the rear wheels. If it is out how is it best to adjust it.
I have the rod ends on the bottom wishbones set an equal distance at the moment, if I need more toe in for instance, do I turn the front rod end in
and the rear rod end out by the same amount or just the front rod end only?

If you are a mile out ( more that a Degrees say ) I would do one in and one out.
Then when close just do 1 check then the other if required if you get my drift.
Thats how i did mine anyway

Hmmm, interesting question.
By the way I assume you mean toe as opposed to track or tracking? As in toe-in or out?
I would be tempted to try and measure from the centre-line of the car so that one arm (or half of wheel) has the correct track (and I mean track, not
toe!), then alter the other to set the toe.
Otherwise you may end up with one rear wheel 'in' or 'out' of placement from the other 3.
That make sense?
Not got adjustability in mine though so only theory.
HTH,
James

a laser level is a good toy to get the track equal both sides with the front.
