Default alignment question

I have a 1994 Polaris 400cc 4X4

just rebuilt front suspension and need to set alignment

I am reading conflicting posts here re toe in versus toe out

could someone please tell me the setting for my model?

Thanks for the quick reply

So I am assuming this is measured between the "fat" part of the tyres?

ie the measurement at the rear of the front tyres is 1/16 th MORE than the measurement at the front of the front tyres - is that correct?

Bit confused now - took a trip to town [Cairns FNQ Australia - pronounced "effin' Q"] today to see Polaris dealer and photocopied a few pages from the workshop manual and it details how to set alignment as toe OUT of 1/16 to 1/8 th at rims [or 1/8 to 1/4 using chalk on tyre method]

but I am assuming my model is in fact a Magnum and even though I took a photo to the shop they still think it may be an Explorer

how do I put an image/video in this forum?? - like can I upload to "garage" [as I do in Volvo forum] or do I need to refer to an existing url on www [as I do in php forums], eg I note some people are using Putfile for movies
