Default 06 Rincon toe out causing tire wear

My rincon is wearing both front tires, it looks like I have to much toe out \ /. I'm a big guy 330 lbs. do I need to set the suspension for a heavier load. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

Apparently mine was delivered with the lock nuts on the tie rod not tight, and the thing got way out of wack by 35 miles...

Anyhow, spec is 7/16" toe out as measured at the tire tread, plus or minus 9/16". Use a toe gauge or 2 carpenter squares C clamped together and mark the backs of the tires. Roll the machine until the marks are at the front of the tires, set your gauge against the front of the tires and measure the difference...

I don't think there are any adjustments for the suspension, but it should handle your weight. Mine will bottom the front suspension easily if I land on a whooped out trail w/o having my weight back...

If the suspension is bottoming, you might think about adding a set of High Lifter springs...

Seems like every new one I have seen has too much toe out. Its not hard to adjust.
