If you have stock A-arms, then the only thing your can adjust is the Toe-In.

Here is a quick way to do it:


Use a string wrapped around the rear wheels, past the fronts in a big u shape and at roughly the spindle centerline height. I used the Stock Honda wheels, but anything would work. Make sure the string is tight. As a part this procedure I would verify the two strings were parallel to each other by measuring two places:
1) right in front of the front tires
2) right near the ends of the strings, in my example near the wheels laying on their sides.

Then pick a point in the center of the back of the quad like the grab bar. Put a mark there with a sharpie pen. Measure from there to each handle bar end (assuming bars are straight) and move bars until the measurement is equal. Finally measure from the tire to the string at the front and back of each front tire, and the difference is your toe.
