I just went in to get an alignment today and my front toe is fucked to hell lol. I set it to Toe in (-0.50 degrees in) because the right inner tie rod would not thread into my outer tie rod end any more. Is my rack fucked? What can I do to alleviate this situation?

I am currently running Circuit Sport inner and V2 Outer tie rod combo (not the OEM replacement looking one).

What chassis is this? Was the rack centered when they started adjusting the tie rods?

This was on a 95 s14. I have no idea lol. Is there a way to find out?

Jack the car up, center the wheels and measure to see if the tie rods are the same length at both side. If its not centered, one side will be longer.

One tie rod is longer than the other. Saw that at the alignment place. One has the inner tie rod all the way in the outer, and the other has plenty of room left. Would that offset the rack?

Adjusting it so that both are the same length wouldn't make a difference would it? It would just throw off the toe on one side.
