It is easier to put a wrench on the rod itself. There are four flats on it to turn for adjustment, 12mm I think. Your measuring idea works but more accurate finding the spindle height in relation to the tire height.
This works mostly. I did pretty much what you did, but went for a test drive, checked it again and it was WAY off. Took a few tries to get it consistent. I have street tires.
Retired Professional Mechanic: Good video, but you never check . How to measure setback. Take tape measure measure from center front rim to center back rim. Let's say 110 inches. The other side should be the same. If not something bent/ broke. Your control arms could be bent rear-end sitting Crooked, especially after lift. Frame bent dog tracking. Of setbacks is off you could have some terrible steering. When doing alignment on cars, it's always checked no different than a golf cart. God bless.
Great video! Got my golf cart spot on! One suggestion, my dad told me you can also adjust the inner tie rod end by turning it in or out which helped because I maxed out my outer tie rod end as far in as possible and still needed a couple turns more. Thank you!
Thank you so much for the video. The golf cart that I'm trying to align seems to only have one tie rod that adjusts its on the right side not on the left side so I don't know how to adjust both sides since there's only one side of the tire or the golf cart that has that tie rod adjustment that I'm looking at in your video. Is it possible to reach out to you directly?

It says alignment but all you did was set the toe.

Direct and to the point. Nice job. 👍
I have the exact cart and lift, but I can't get the camber to align. I can't find any adjustments.. any advise??

That's setting toe... Proper alignment is it not pulling... You didn't even drive it
