Default 1 full inch of toe-OUT?

I was having some issues with mild death wobble. All of this started after a trip to the dealership. I had never had any issues before taking it in. I had the tires balanced and rotated and it seemed to work for a while but it came back. I got out my tape measure and holy sh*t! The toe-in was actually a toe-out! I had a full inch of toe out in the front end. I dialed it back in to with an 1/8th inch and it drives much better now. I guess things really can loosen up over time.

My buddy's Ford did that with a brand new set of Nitto trail grapplers, lasted maybe 10k...

It's good tho that you found that problem, don't wanna drive around with a DW. I have been lucky to not personally have it but have been in several when it actually starts to do it...
