Seriously, find a local who's farmed for a while. Someone like Allan in NE... Have him stop by some day and make sure you have a good assortment of woodworking clamps and a 6" crescent wrench handy. When he asks what yer doing, tell him yer givin' yer tractor an alignment.

He'll take care of the rest. : )

Gee whizz, give the guy a break, start the New Year right. As far back as I can remember, always been told there was no stupid questions (Just stupid answers) or the only stupid question was the one that was not asked.....:>)...:>)

Now to answer the guys' question:
You need a toe-in of 1/8 to 1/4 inch by adjusting drag link(commonly called tye-rod ends)on both sides equal amount to get the correct toe-end

Happy New Year!!!!

You'll need to loosen the clamps on both ends of the drag link(Tube), then turn it one way or the other to get the correct toe-in. You might have to use some penitrating oil, ends might be rusted...
