All you can align with a stock TR3 front end is the toe in/out and steering
wheel.  Toe plates and two tape measures are all you need.  Check for worn
or loose parts otherwise.

I=E2=80=99ve always used a magnesium board (like what you use for concrete)=
 to
align the front with the rear then measure over to the other side to get it
straight. Always worked pretty good for me. Good luck
