Front end alignment

I Swapped out the front end on my Truck last weekend. Went from a 3:08 to a 3:42. Ended up swapping out the whole front end, but had to reuse the drag link from left to right spindle, as well as the drag link from steering box to the left side spindle. Since I have a 4" lift, and better ball joints than the donor front end, I reused the left side spindle, too. When I got it all put back together, I found that my front toe out was outta whack. I was wondering if any of you have any insight on how to properly set the front toe out on my truck. Where do I need to measure from? How much toe in / out do I need? Is this somethig that would be easy for a do-it-yourselfer, or do I have to give up the cash and have it done at a shop? Kinda hate to spend the money if I don't have to. THANKS!!!!
