Windstar alignment

Can anyone tell me what the toe in-out spec is for a 02 Windstar. My van handles great however it seems to me just looking at it that there is obvious toe out. I would guess that I should not be able to see toe-out; if anything it should be slight toe-in. Before I take to an alignment shop I would like to know the spec. Thanks,

Specs? If you can visually see toe out, then get it aligned. The alignment shop will give you a printout that has all the specs.

For a '99:

caster: LH = 3.3 deg, RH = 3.8 deg
camber: LH = -4.4 deg, RH = -4.4 deg
toe: -.15, (plus/minus .25 deg)

Don't know if this works for a '02 or not.

BTW, rear toe: +.06 deg (plus/minus .34 deg)

Crazy values! Looks like toe-out on the front is normal, as much as -.40 deg is allowed. I think I would just observe tire wear for guidance ... and not rush too quickly to the alignment shop unless there is a problem.
