Cool Alignment

Long story short, I was stuck in the yard in mud...paid my neighbor $30 to pull me out and it bent the tie rod pretty bad...$128 later that was fixed forgot to do a quick alignment and two month old tires are toast.

It's been literally like 7+years since I did this. Which way do the tie rods need to be turned foe toe in/toe out

As always advise is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Cool Re: Alignment

Cannot post photos but the driver front tire is slick underneath the car, and thread on the outside. Steering wheel is cocked to the driver wheel to drive straight

Re: Alignment

What do you have for steering on that? I see a box, but I also see what appears to be a tie rod end for rack and pinion. Also looks like camber is way off. Take it to an alignment shop and have it all checked out. What year is this?
