front alignment

[anthony90si]

hi guys my car has a bad front alignment. i don't really feel like bringing it to a garage till i change my suspension in a few weeks.then i will get it done properly. so my question is to align the front do i have to unbolt the tie rod from the knucle.
thanks

You can't adjust camber or caster on these cars. Only toe. Toe on the front requires adjusting the tie-rod. Rear is adjusted via comp arm.

i know that but how. by simply disconecting the tie rod. and threading it in or out?

yes u can adjust the caster.

u don't disconnect the tie-rod end, u just loosen the locking nut and then twist the inner tie-rod to adjust the toe. then tighten the locking nut.

Well, I'd love to hear how.

ok to make things more clear.. the outer tie rod bolts up near the wheel. and where does the iner tie rod bolt up to.. the rack and pinion??
