Measure the distance between the front of the tyres and the rear, if the distance is different, unbolt the two 13mm bolts on the drag link (the long tube that goes from wheel to wheel) and turn it with some snap pliers to adjust the distance.
Same distance front and rear is correct.

that's what i thought but wouldn't that eat up both front tires evenly??? its 90% on the right side

CwTp26

i will try that first thing. better than having to pay to have it done

no cuz the roads are convex and it normally pulls to the right.

aa i see. yeah i dont have to turn to the right, i just let go of the steering wheel

From my understanding. The wheels should be toed in couple degrees. So the distance of the back of the wheel should be larger by 1/8-1/16th of an inch than the front. Please correct me if im wrong.

With the 242 TC toe is 0.
With the 231 TC toe is 1.5 or 1/16" to 3 mm or 1/8" closer at the front.
