Hi, I would like to check, and align the front wheels on this atv if needed to avoid tire wear and best handeling. is there a simple method that can be used to do this? Thanks for any help! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

All i do is aim the handle bars straight and use the tie rod adjusters to point the wheels straight. I do it visually and will aim for slight toe in..(wheels slightly pointed in towards each other in the front). main thing for me is to ride it and see if when the bars are straight. does the quad go straight.

Thanks for the tips, I will drive it with handlebars straight and see where I end up lol! Something that scared me was when I had to tighten the ball joints or what ever there called on an Atv and I was able to bend the cotter pins back with my fingers made me wonder if this thing is going to fall apart while I'm riding it as I weigh 250lbs and have heahth issues and bad knees. Thanks Again!
