  • you do realize that the top of the lug nuts are slightly rounded so you aren't getting an accurate reading

  • @IcemanJD08 Yes, I understand that, but the 2 magnets seem to keep it centered..I had taken my car to an alignment shop and compared my level with theirs...it was pretty much dead on.

  • @IcemanJD08 Another thought if you are concerned about the roundness of the lug would be to purchase a cheap set or snag one at a junk yard and smooth out the top..might be tricky makin it perfectly level but it would work.

  • Nice video! Will be doing this today with the socket on the nut method!

  • @qwqwq1w2

    this idea isn't intended to get a reading on the toe in. the video is called "DIY Home Made Wheel Alignment Camber Tool "UNDER $7 BUCKS" " Near as I can tell it describes exactly that. there are a bunch of other vids that show you how to do rough toe adjustments.

  • @Stylnjj84

    Alternatively, you could put a socket over the lug nut. The back end of the socket would be a flat surface perfectly perpendicular to the wheel studs, which is what you're shooting for.

  • If the wheel is "toe in/out" horizontally, this way does not work at all.

  • Great Idea. Thanks for sharing.

  • what happens when you have extended lugs :p

  • Too much retarded hahaha lmfao
