I'm building a monster truck out of a ridgecrest and for some reason I have crazy toe out on my front end. Everything looks built correctly and my steering link is a one piece hot racing unit so its not the wrong rod ends. thoughts? Pics to show what I'm talking about

 
I have the same style linkage, when it gets hit in front alot like yours looks like it has, it bends the link. when it bends, it makes the toe go out.

I just bend it back to where the wheels are where they belong.
 
you must be jumping and landing on the front end a lot ? why don't you see if you can mount two of them steering links that run from tire to tire . mount one on top of the knuckle and the other one on the bottom side of the knuckle .

Make sure the linkage mounts that are on the steering knuckles are faced the correct way. If that's good I would make sure your steering links aren't bent, make a set out of all thread. Are you running hub adapters?
