Default stock 2000 LS 400 toe alignment specs?

What is the factory recommended setting for toe setting front and rear? In mm or inch. no degrees plz.

From waht ive been reading, 0.5-1mm toe in front, 2mmish toe in rear. ?

front toe should always be set to 0.
rear toe is a toe-in but i don't know the actual specs.

actually the LS never had a factory to spec of "0". Generally most cars (not sports cars) have some toe-in in the front for better stability/on-center feel.


factory spec is 0°12’ ± 12’ (0.2° ± 0.2°) in the front, A + B: 0°18’ ± 12’ (0.3° ± 0.2°) for the rear. Specs are for a '98-00 coil spring car.

I ended up setting both front and rear to 1mm toe in.
Will test and ride tomorrow
I like my foxbody with 0 toe in, makes for a snappy steering response.

I found this in the JDM manual. There are some differences between the spring and the air models especially at the rear camber.
