De Dion Rear Toe in

Hello,
Just setting up my jig for the de dion and at the moment it is parallel, is it a small amount of toe in that is desirable? I want to get the axle as close as possible so I only need the absolute minimum of shims

Cheers
David

Toe in help gives grip and helps keep the rear inline. Camber aids grip in cornering. But you can only find the correct amount by adjust and try

Thanks Rob,
I ended up with a small amount of toe in and about 1 degree of negative chamber or as close as I could get it, the finer adjustments will be done with shims
