With single keel skis you typically want more toe out than dual keel or dual carbide runners. The Split rails don't need a large amount of toe out with the two keels. I would set them up around 1/8 to 1/4" out. The difference between the 08 and 09+ Nytro is the mounting location for the tie rod ends on the OEM spindles. Because you're replacing the stock spindles with the split rail spindle the toe needs to be checked and adjusted. Don't get carried away with trying to be exact with this setting. Usually there is to much play in the steering components and front suspension to be overly precise and toe settings can vary due to ski/carbide/suspension setups and rider preference.

That's an interesting statement made in that last sentence. I, and I believe many other Nytro owners would disagree.

Hmmm, pretty ballsy statement. How many aftermarket front suspensions are there? 4,'5? Mine has the factory team front end on it.
