My driver side front tire is nice and straight and my passenger side front tire is sticking out like the tires are turned. How do i make it straight again? Nothing is bent at all but i need it straightened out before this big 2 foot snow storm we are getting here in ny tomorrow. Thanks for your help in advance!

Google search it. I know there are some write-ups on how to adjust it yourself. Basically, take a measurement from tire to tire on the front side, then take a measurement from tire to tire on the back side. The "front side" measurement should be slightly less than the "back side" measurement.
That'll get you by, but definitaly take it to an alignment shop. They have the precision measuring equipment.

See if this helps you any. I know plenty of people that do all their own alignments.

Take your time and do it right. An at home alignment with a measuring tape isnt something thats impossible to do on your own. Hell they had to do it somehow before all these digital and computerized alignment tools came about.
