Default Toe gauge

Hi

Can someone recommend from experience a good toe gauge to use on 1/10th offroad buggy . Would be beneficial if it could work on a 1/8th scale buggy as well. Thanks
Arvi

Thanks. Has anyone used it. Is it any good or better to invest in a set up station?

I will always be a set up station guy, but this may be me coming from TC where 1mm out could mean you’re in the B final and not the A, I’ve noticed that off-road guys say you don’t need one,

But for me it’s a must, I don’t understand that you want to be in the A final but your happy for one wheel to have 2mm camber the other to have .5mm, the cheap camber gage relays on your wheel being straight, but are they.... same when it comes to Toe, you may think you have it right but again with the cheap option relays on your wheel.

I don't think anybody I know would just check toe/camber statically without moving the car at all ?

I would always check in 3-4 places in a complete wheel revolution as does everybody that I can think off (at least the ones who check the camber :P)
