Post Alignment Specification Conversion Utility

As many of you already know, the Bentley manual and others give the specification for front and rear toe in degrees (actually minutes). This isn't much help for a quick check of the toe by the home mechanic.

So, I've put together a small utility that converts those specs into 1/32s of an inch. All you need to know are the diameter of your tires (not the wheels) and the amount of total toe specified for the front or rear.

Just e-mail me if you would like a copy. My e-mail address is in my profile. It's written as a script and is a small file. Because of the script format you may get a warning from your firewall or virus program.

Since the last time I did any serious coding was in Fortran for an IBM mainframe I'm sure that there are improvements that can be made.
Oh well, it works.
