Hi all...many of you have helped me try to find a vibration/shimmy in my car in past posts. Today as I was studying my records for this car, I looked at the last alignment printout. It shows NO front toe. As in - 0.12 degrees. Both sides. I think spec is like 20 minutes, or about 0.33 degrees.
Could this be the cause of my shimmy? What does NO TOE feel like?
Thanks,
Mike
