Wheels on front axle tilted in on the bottom of tire

[1lukeduke]

Hello all! I’ve searched here and online but have not come up with anything, but putting a chain on the axle and bending it up. The front of my vehicles front tires are pointed in on the bottom as you can see in the two pictures. The third is my rear axle tire. I used a dirty driveway to show the tracking on the tires. I have replaced all bearings, bolts, seals and brake parts, everything. It should be brand new. 95 percent is factory OEM Toyota. Any idea what I did wrong or how I can adjust it? Thank you in advance for any help!!!

Its called Camber.

Try 26psi

I guess if the axle housing was bent from jumping the wheels would be splayed the other way. So I guessing the knuckle(s) was/were put back together wrong.

Is the wheel bearing really loose?

Do you have like a dry wall square - put it next to the wheels perpendicular and see it the tires/rim are square to the earth.

Looks like mine - they run 1 degree or so of camber

Check both wheels with an angle finder, this will tell you if the wheels are parallel verticaly

Get it on level ground first (left to right), then you can use the angle finder or a 2' level.

No, I just re-tightened them to check. Good suggestion, thank you.

It could be. I have never had an axle with all new parts. Maybe it is the way they were built new.

No, it’s called too much air

30 psi. What would you suggest for non Offroad driving

I would drop a few PSI and then roll through that dust again and see what it looks like.

Someone above mentioned 26lbs so he might be on the money.
